So, are you saying the bugs that HTX uncovers are not worth fixing?

There's a fair number of individuals and teams out there that
utilize HTX in the absence of such a workload, and not just for vnic.
What workload would you suggest to better serve "real customers"?

Well, yes.  If the bugs are found with HTX, the fixes are verified
against HTX.  If they were found with a "real customer workload" they'd
be verified against a "real customer workload."
