I have both done pentests and received pentest reports. My observation is that the perceived severity often varies between the tester and the customer.

    Sometimes the law determines the risk. Any critical/highs in PCI will get you speed bagged, so you sort those either way.

    Now, sometimes the sorting is “turn if off for the retest” which is just the business ignoring risk in a complicated way, but it still gets addressed in some way.
