No, actually I don't think we need to argue much. We should try to label things correctly and the difference between what is a bug and what is not a bug is typically evident.
This is a bug, <https://github.com/apache/polaris/issues/813> and this is not <https://github.com/apache/polaris/issues/773>. Both of these are legitimate issues, but how they are labelled is important.
