Next time you find a bug there you sell it to the highest bidder. Or maybe not you, but someone will do that. It's not really a winning strategy...

I did not know bug bounty had such a bad rep. Is this for reporting bugs outside of the bug bounty platforms?

Nah, in this case they simply had no official bug bounty program/platform.

I would guess that a big factor is mindset and tech culture across different companies or having a bad head of something who doesn't get the point of bug bounty / promoting responsible disclosure.
