It isn't an unforgiving stance. It is just that it isn't very OK to let
this slide.

A podling has 3 months to write this report. It shouldn't be a surprise
that it is coming back around.  Much of the data can be pulled
semi-automatically.

So it isn't a big deal to do this.

And it provides a very important check that the project is still ticking
over.  Projects that repeatedly fail to produce timely reports are commonly
projects in trouble. It is better to push a bit and find out which projects
those are. One key symptom of trouble is if one person is doing everything
and that was exactly what I probed for.
