I've seen lazy developers use a try insert/update if fail to implement a
poor man's upsert... a feature much sought after and only now being
seriously developed for Postgres.
So... whether or not it's a bug is application dependent.
Yes I'd question a 3rd party about this if the product wasn't developed
in house and/or fully open to code review to have them tell me "we did
it that way on purpose" though rather than just declaring it a nuisance.
