Yes, the reproducer seems to work quite well.  It's just not very
user-friendly.  The issue is that you need to find the right CI job, go
to the logs, download the file, etc. Instead of simply cloning a repo,
installing the tool, and running it when needed.

As such, we already have a couple of patches to introduce a reproducer
script generator.  One by me, and one by Gabriele.
