Piano Roll grey and white gridlines get mis-aligned [Sonar Premium]

I put my trust in the developers/bakers that sooner or later they will address issues.

 
Well, trust has to be earned.  And it can be lost. 
 
As of Sonar 8.5.3 I was pretty trusting.  When I started to have problems with X1, then X2, then X3, then Platinum... my trust in Cakewalk eroded.
 
When I see bugs I submitted in April still marked "New" and "not yet reviewed", that further erodes my trust in Cakewalk.
 
It seems like the only threads that I've posted which actually get Cakewalk's attention are the ones which question their business model.  In other word, Cakewalk seems far more interested in what we give them (money) than what they give us (quality product and support).  This disparity further erodes my trust in Cakewalk.
 
I'm sorry if you find my attempts at getting bugs fixed annoying.  I tried the forum first.  Nothing.  Then I tried the problem reporter.  Nothing.  Now I am trying the forum again, seeking to find other people who are experiencing the same problems. 
 
Please tell me: How else can I get the bugs fixed?  Cakewalk's code is not available for scrutiny and recompilation.  If it was, I would fix these bugs myself.
 
Should I just give up?  Let the bugs win?  Move to another software package?  What? 
 
I'm not some whiny newbie, irritated at the slightest little hitch. 
 
I have been using Cakewalk products since 2000, and have a well-established work flow.  When Cakewalk introduces new bugs that interrupt that workflow, I get annoyed.  Naturally.  And I try to get those bugs fixed.  Naturally.  I don't just quietly, stoically suffer.  I am not a sheep (despite the fact that I live in New Zealand).
 
Unlike the blindly faithful (and faithfully blind), I believe that sometimes you HAVE to be a squeaky wheel in order to get adequate customer support.  In my case, when the "quiet" path (of using the problem reporter) doesn't work, I have to resort to the "loud" path (of repetition on the forums).
 
I'm sorry if my bug reporting bothers you.  I am trying to draw Cakewalk's attention to the bugs, so that they can be fixed.  If you don't want to read my topics, then don't.  If you see "tripecac" as the starter of a topic, then don't open it.  And certainly don't post to it, because each time you do, it pushes the thread to the top of the queue, thus encouraging other people to contribute to it, adding even more noise.  By posting in my topics you are only making the wheel squeakier, which helps me, but annoys you.  So why do it?  Why deliberately annoy yourself?
