You missed half my point, _WE_ are not the only people who have
bug tracking systems setup on FreeBSD.  Some of those sites could
easily use (and I know of at least 1 that does) the supplied
BSD 4.4 Lite sendbug/bugfiler tool set to do there job.

Because _FreeBSD_ has decided to use gnats for its bug tracking system
does not mean we should impose that on other sites.  Your link now
creates a direct conflict between a standard BSD supplied function and
a FreeBSD specific add on.
