Including a public shaming into the process would not be so reprehensible if it were not for both the innocent and the guilty.

It's always been that way though.

Actually "worst" is unfair. But he's really evasive here, and the instruction to go to the forums is bizarre. If I was still helping there I'd be pissed that he's directing users there when their issue can only be dealt with by spam team.

Yup.
I called this out the other day - +Matt Cutts should be ashamed of himself.
If there is manual action taken, it is for a specific reason.
It only takes a minute to select a cause and point to an example.
It takes less than a minute to add in if it's a single page, 5 pages, or a larger collection (and provide a range).

But that's far to much effort for a Googler.
Instead, lets pass the buck to a bunch of volunteers who have no access to any data/information ... and expect them to do the support work that Google's to cheap/lazy to provide.
