I never know who "we" is supposed to be.

"We" don't ask people to submit bug reports from emacs -Q, that adds
no value. What the instructions ask for is a *recipe starting from
emacs -Q that shows the problem*. This is a way to get you to show how
to reproduce the problem. Send the actual report from your normal,
configured Emacs.
