Communications from Apple in response to bug reports, problem reports and so on
Apple Bug Reporter
Fix Radar or GTFO (2012) suggested that lack of communication was too often a problem. I read of similar concerns before and after that campaign, but I don't know whether the problem was/is widespread.
Apple Launches Redesign of Bug Reporter Tool with Improved Search, Streamlined File Attachments - Mac Rumors (2013-09-01)
I have no recent experience with Apple Bug Reporter (it's present for me, but my last real use of the service was long ago).
Feedback Assistant
Frequency of communication from Apple is not a concern for me; I think of Feedback Assistant as the key to butler service from the company.
A quiet, orderly approach to gathering as much as possible of what may be required for Apple to respond. What's gathered is sent, there's a thank you and then I expect the butler to not disturb me until Apple finds it necessary to communicate something.
The most recent communication allowed some clarification about use and limitations of fsck_hfs(8).
