I thing there is the wrong habit to perceive the safety report as a punishment ;
first of all if safety is or is suspected to be affected the report is mandatory, accondirng to the just culture we should learn from mistakes , there is a chance that the controller was overloaded and if it's the case, reasons should be investigated and solutions put in force, there is a chance she had'nt enough break time during the duty, once again we should discover why it happened.
To be honest I had several argumentative conversations on the frequency, sometimes I made a mistake, sometimes pilots got mad apparently for no reason because they thought to be right, but the Dublin BA pilot is far away from being rude, at least compared to what I'm used to .

You guys/gals need to let the airlines run the ramps/gates like they do in the US. Crews and ops can then spar among themselves. Seriously, some folks are wound too tight. I've seen lots of airliners have to pause their push-back, seldom got into a spat on the radio. Stuff happens.
