Remember that our community writes bug reports but also vets bug reports. We rarely have to deal with bad reports. Interestingly, large quantities of false negatives are a non-issue.

Presumably the same reason why they don't have a ton of bad questions on stack overflow: their community scoring would apply just as much to bug reports
