Oh and just to clarify a few things...

The P labels are not the same as the priority that I mentioned above. Once a piece of work is deemed complex enough it has to go into our team prioritization process amid many other tasks, of which quite a few are not even visible publicly.

And also, open issues are never closed by any bot. Only closed issues that have not received activity for a long time are locked. This is a common misconception but I am not sure how we can communicate that better.
