Comment (by knutsp):

 I have used Twenty Fourteen as the basis in a quite large project in a
 multisite, all sites using the same theme with some differences, as colors
 etc. First thing was to create a child theme, then adding a body class
 identifying each site. Next thing was to combat some strange behaviour on
 some smaller screens. Nothing that couldn't be done, but there was some
 struggles, pushing us to the limits of our CSS knowledge. We are all happy
 now.

 I definitely don't think "busted" is the right word here, under any
 circumstance.

 1. You never ever edit an updateable theme, especially not a core bundeled
 theme
 2. You need some extra skills to be able to override a theme using a child
 theme. Overriding CSS media queries is especially difficult, but not
 undoable
 3. If you need help, use the support forums until you actually have a real
 bug to present
 4. Your problems doing what you want to do does not implicate there has to
 be a bug in the software you are using. But there may very well be a
 suggestion for an enhancement to make every developers tasks easier.
 5. This ticket is going to have a resolution some day. One must have some
 patience. In the mean time you have to find a fix yourself. That's life.
