Could we maybe instead bulk-add a comment explaining the split and how to take the PR forwards if someone (in the future) has itch/time?
I know we humans love to clean things up, but I think leaving such "unclean" things open serves an important purpose. They all had importance to at least one person at one point in time, and likely many of them are still relevant if they piqued someones curiosity to dig back into them. Closing them makes them harder to find for the future developer. I'm sure some of them are already resolved/duplicates too. If only we could divine which are which.
