and how do you know it was busy ?
were you sitting next to the controller - or is this just another assumption
on your part?

Depends on your definition of nasty. I consider t-storm, funnel clouds,
and clouds with temps below freezing to be nasty and I won't fly into
them, at least not intentionally. I hardly think that means I have no
business flying IFR.

Not sure what the OPs definition of nasty is, but that is mine.
