I don't disagree with the definition reportbug uses for critical, there are just some nuances that aren't easy to express in a short description like that. Like, for instance, the fact that it's not a kernel bug alone which causes dataloss, but a combination of a kernel bug together with a broken, unsupported version of devmapper.
