Well, the review did its job, then. The problem would have been if they had hidden these bugs to make the publisher happy: instead, they have exposed issues that you are free to ignore or not, depending on your needs."
The real issue is that review scores are so inflated that 1-6 indicates “bad” instead of any gradual scale of quality.

This is because digital magazines tend to avoid getting on the wrong side of publishers: preview copies allow for reviews to be already publishable on day one, which is a huge source of clicks/money.
