I agree.

I guess the reporter would come up with a good justification.

I can imagine one, but it is not very strong: you have a development
device, you mess with bad blocks by marking/unmarking them for some
research reasons. You put UBI image there, then remember that some of
the blocks were bad and want to mark them as bad without re-flashing
UBI. Kind of a developer convenience.
