Especially if we add a > link to this discussion thread. > Open with a triage state of Someday/Maybe would imply that the current behavior has been acknowledged as wrong and that a change in the behavior might be expected. It would also imply that if someone provided a patch to change the behavior, it would have a chance of getting checked in. With two core devs stating they see the current behavior as logical and consistent and none stepping up to say the opposite, a change in behavior here isn't going to happen. Thus an open state for this ticket would give people the wrong impression of the state of the issue. Closed tickets are as easily found as open ones -- anyone doing research in an attempt to understand current behavior should not be limiting their searches to only open tickets. The right state for this ticket is closed, which means it's been reviewed and determined that the current behavior is correct and nothing needs to be done to fix it. I would not term further comemnts "unwelcome", but they are not particularly useful unless someone has some new light to shed on the issue.
