This assumes nothing changes. The problem with that assumption is that thing are always changing. Otherwise we wouldn't be here working on things, we'd be leaving things in stasis. What you're assuming will never change is the activity in the bug tracker. As long as we keep telling people that everything in the bug tracker world is fucked beyond fixing, then, hey, we'll get exactly what we want. If instead we look for people who might be motivated to do some meaningful triaging, things could improve. I'd bequite happy if someone spent the time to find the top 10 or so fixable bugs and groomed that list with our feedback. Marking duplicates and the like would happen as a natural consequence of this. That's a realistic possibility. We had something similar to it in the past. If we keep telling everyone who stops by to complain about the bug situation that it's unfixable and everyone's efforts are a waste of time, we'll just ensure that our own dystopia is reality forever. -- Aaron J.
