AFAIU this is upstream Marge behavior. Once you enable the
Approval->Rb tag conversion it removes existing Rb tags. Hence why we
don't have the conversion enabled.


Ah, I guess it is documented for --add-reviewers here:

https://github.com/smarkets/marge-bot#adding-reviewed-by-tested-and-part-of-to-commit-messages

"All existing Reviewed-by: trailers on commits in the branch will be
  stripped."

This sounds horrible from the point of view of trying to track down somebody who knows about what's & why's of some old commit that is later on found to cause issues...

For whom those extra Rb tags are a problem and why?


I hope we would wait for Marge to add a --add-approvers switch which
would leave Reviewed-by tags alone, but add Approved-by tags.
