It's in fact as far as you can get from irrelevant. That's precisely what this
bug report is about: the placement by Emacs of that "*one* file, in *one*
specific situation, which is a crash backtrace", into a user folder.
So perhaps this bug report is altogether irrelevant and a distraction to you.
Fair enough.
What can I say, in that case? We're back to agreeing to disagree. I think that
that *one* case of disrespecting users should be removed; you think that that
regression should stay, because it is an improvement.
We apparently do not disagree about the other cases for this new feature: the
cases where user folders are not written into. We both are in favor of the new
feature in those cases.
We apparently disagree only about that *one* corner case, where Emacs apparently
cannot do otherwise than to write its backtrace into a user folder. That's the
case this bug report is about.
