For what it's worth, I have definitely had PRs that sat inactive for more than 30 days due to committers not having time to look at them, but did eventually end up successfully being merged.
I guess if this just ends up being a committer ping and reopening the PR, it's fine, but I don't know if it really addresses the underlying issue.
