I did bisecting myself, and I know that it costs time and work.
But the first point is the above one that it makes otherwise nearly

Definitely useful, no question.
But the problem is now that kernel devs are addicted to it,
many won't even consider resolving a problem any other way.
That's not "maintaining" (or supporting) one's code.
And when a "maintainer" is too busy to find/fix their own bugs,
that could be a sign that they've bitten off too big of a chunk
of the kernel, and it's time for them to distribute code maintainership.
