Yeah, I'd prefer that xfs_db will operate on a corrupt filesystem and
maybe crash unexpectedly than to refuse to allow any diagnosis of
the corrupt filesystem.

xfs_db is a debug and forensic analysis tool. Having it crash
because it didn't handle some corruption entirely corectly isn't
something that we should be particularly worried about...
