> I would contact Apple, if there was a feedback option, but there isn’t

There is: https://feedbackassistant.apple.com/

That said, it isn’t very user-friendly, and I find that they don’t seem to pay much attention to it. When they do respond, it tends to be some form of “#wontfix. Please close this.”

That looks like a fairly ugly little bug. I suspect they know about it now, thanks to the HN Bug Reporter. It tends to highlight these types of things.

Every now and then I think about starting a public bug report tracker for Apple bugs since they keep theirs to themselves. The number of maddening but minuscule bugs I run into makes me wish I was using Linux again, where I can fix them myself, or at the very least report them upstream and hope someone else eventually does so.

By not having a public record of bugs Apple conveniently hides the sheer number of them and how many people they affect.

There's https://openradar.appspot.com where you can at least share the bugs you file yourself.

Oh, this is great! Not surprising someone already thought of it.
