It's likely there's a known solution to your problem, but I'll answer your questions literally.

Apple Developer Tools engineers are gender-neutral supermen. The odds are better than for most developers, and they can't reproduce bugs nobody reports.
If many who have the problem report, the sum of reports might add up to a reproducible case.

If there's a known solution, that's what you really want to know. If your aim is to assemble reports so someone can understand the bug, see my previous response.
(Sorry, that's snarky. I've had a lifetime of clients who want bugs fixed but ask for the cause of the bug instead. I shouldn't take it out on you.)

You could have; who knows? The answer would help others avoid this problem; maybe someone recognizes it and knows what causes it.
Returning to my bug-reporting obsession, open About This Mac…, get a system report, and attach it to your report. (Better: `man system_profiler`) It's a huge amount of XML, but zips well.
