I'm confused.

On one hand, you describe the work as "too easy", "surely [I]'d simply
have fixed that", trivializing the scope of the work.

On the other hand, you describe my not jumping at it as "not a very
helpful attitude", as though it was a nontrivial scope of work.
(After all, if it is trivial, then doing it is not that "helpful".)

I might say I would consider it, were I not concerned about it turning
into a reoccurrance of the disgraceful PR1105 situation.
