1) It was based off of the HP48 ROM which was already very mature, but many of the more complex features were removed from Alcuin/Hammer to make Elsie.

2) It seemed (to me anyway) that its user base was smaller and less of the hacking type (i.e. it didn't have the same level of programs being made for it, be it in the built-in language, in SysRPL/Applet, or in ML as compared to the HP48 series; those that exist were often ports from the HP48). So finding bugs would be less likely simply because there were/are fewer eyes capable of finding them.

I concur.

But it is strange that here, on this forum of all places, no one has contributed a single additional bug.

I think it may be partly due to lower interest in this particular machine. I myself have one but it sits in its box untouched except for the one week I spent messing with it after purchase.
