May it is just me. When I want to send a bug report, for some
package/library the first thing I do is running the apropos-command and
searching the word bug, to find out the specific syntax. As I said there
is, at least

    - libname-report-bug

    - libname-submit-bug-report

    - libname-send-bug-report (your example)

So that is confusing I say. If one convention would be chosen, like in 
«one ring to rule them all» I think it would simplify things a bit. 
At least that is my experience over the years
