My POV is that it's easy to fix some phobos bug. But to get the easy fixes merged is a PITA. PRs that fixe a bug are hard to get merged. Why ? I don't know. Sometime we have to act like a bully to get a PR merged and that's not normal. Perso I give up. No need to get emotional over code. But I do agree that bug fixes should be fast tracked. How hard would it be to set up a priority queue? Say 1. bug fixes 2. performance enhancement 3. ...
