I don't agree for hard-masked packages. Sometimes they are hard-masked

weird. Users shouldn't be using p.masked packages and if they do, they
should really know what they are doing, especially when filling bugs for
such packages as there are no guarantees while in p.mask.

Okay, I understand that. Just keep in mind, that order bugs to the ebuilds might be more difficult without changing the version number. And the guidelines say, if an ebuild is changed the version number i.e. -rx should be increased.
