Ok: Since I don't recognize your list as matching the problem as I see 
it, I will ignore your provided list.

Please note that I am _not_ saying that your list is wrong, nor that my 
view of the problem is correct.  Only that I don't understand your info.

Since you merged and reassigned bugs, packages will get kicked out of 
Buster because they cannot be fixed.

I urge you to either stand by your change by engaging in discussions on 
theories as to what is the real problem here, or if you don't want to do 
that (or don't have the time, or don't understand the problem well 
enough) then I recommend that you consider reverting those changes done 
by you.
