Does not matter - if 100 people report the same bug we only need a quick
way to get to the one good report, the rest can go to /dev/null.  Bug
reporting guidelines make the process easier because you can immediately
shitcan any reports where the user obviously didn't read the guidelines.
The same users who won't read the guidelines also won't bother to search
for dupes before submitting a report anyway...

It's just an easy way to filter out useless bug reports at a glance.
