Instead of forcing down your opinion down everyone's throats, there are nicer alternatives that need attention instead. How about you create a patch set (instead of threatening emails) that adds the ability to detect a bad boot and have grub prompt the user for an action the next time the system boots?

Examples:
"Boot into older kernel?", "Boot with safe graphics mode?", etc.

Then grub can remain hidden by default to provide a nice end-user experience and if booting fails a, less technically inclined, user gets shown some alternative boot methods.
