Yes, you are free not to use the GCC Bugzilla. And GCC developers are 
free to prefer to see bug reports be made to the GCC Bugzilla, as it is 
the place dedicated to GCC bug reports, made specifically for that 
purpose and with the infrastructure to handle it.

What would you think if you had a Github or a Gitlab repository and some 
people felt the need to randomly e-mail you about bugs they found 
instead of filing them using the dedicated Issues system there ? And 
what would you say if, upon being recommended to use that system, they 
said that they are "free not to use" the system dedicated to helping 
them reporting bugs when reporting bugs ? To me, that would just sound 
rude and like they don't actually want to help find and fix bugs.
