While I agree with the intent, I do fear that something this strict in
policy creates the wrong incentives (e.g. bots that auto-comment bugs with
no real updates, and others that create new incidents after 7 days and one
second). I'd be okay with adding something like "CAs SHOULD update status
weekly and MUST provide status updates at least every 30 days unless
otherwise agreed by a Mozilla representative."

The addition of "marked as resolved" makes sense to me.
