The hole section is about how to generate a file, where the previous 
step already mentions which file we are talking about:

"Copy the generated file to the system used for filing the report"

I don't think we need to clarify further what FILE is. The deixis is 
already strong there.

When the guide was like before people was asking frequently how to 
report bugs. It wasn't till I put a video-tutorial in the top of the 
page when they stopped doing so.

I also asked a couple of people to show me in person how they would be 
reporting bugs using that guide. Both took long time to figure it out, 
and mentioned they would normally give up.

If you bring back the guide as it was nobody except us will be using it. 
We are better only putting there what is common, and letting people ask 
the infrequent cases. If something really hurts afterwards we can bring 
the pieces back from the historic at any time.

After a period of a week nobody opposed, and I have addressed all the 
individual issues that people reported about it.

Moreover my latest poll was also performed outside of Ubuntu. And it 
showed that were half the outsiders disagreed, hundred percent of 
insiders disagreed. And the polls were verbatim.

So in my view I cannot take disagreement too seriously here. I'm open to 
consider any option, except staying the same that proves not to work.

There's only one place where there aren't any issues:
