The other an automated set of standard pre-built bisection points so that testers can more easily localize a bug down to a few hundred commits without needing to learn how to use "git bisect" (think Ubuntu users).
Before that you want a flowchart or instruction list of boot options to try. A lot of errors can be localised simply by asking the reported to boot with things like "iommu=off", "pci=routeirq", "apci=off" etc
That takes a lot less time to run through and can be very informative.
