To <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Bug%20importances>, I would suggest adding a new criteria under the critical importance (or something like this):

 "It simplifies software contents, bug fixing or development"

So, although not doing this apparently hasn't got any critical consequences, it already eliminates the main sources of waste.

That is excess of inventories: dozens of bugs already fixed in upgrades that are asked to be performed, generally in special types of bugs (<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Bug%20triage#Special_types_of_bugs>)

In fact, eliminating excess of inventory first is a general accepted recommendation in many productivity philosophies:

- Just in Time (<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_in_time_%28business%29>)
 - 5S (<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5S_%28methodology%29#1._Seiri>)
 - Lean Six Sigma (<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lean_six_sigma>)
- The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People (<http://hdbizblog.com/blog/2008/04/28/sharpen-the-saw-the-7th-habit-of-highly-effective-people/>)

The amount of bugs of this kind are a few and working on them first can save lot of time in the medium term, while also making the fixing of critical bugs more speedy.

So, what do you think?
