I haven't heard back from you. Maybe because the previous email didn't
put you in CC, that was on me.

As I cannot find any reproducibility error (as mentioned in the last
email), I intend to lower the severity of this bug in a few days to let
aegisub migrate, while keeping the bug open to wait for your comment. I
hope this is fine.

Thanks!
