Unless it's also too convoluted for me, a native (American) English speaker, I 
think the question, as stated (in a non-question form) in the subject line, can 
be rephrased as

        If a given change introduced a bug, and I file a bug in Bugzilla on 
that, is there a way that I should use to indicate, in the bug, which change 
introduced the bug and, possibly, indicate, in the Gerrit entry for the change, 
the bug that it caused?

and, in addition, it includes a second, ralated question:

        If I file a bug but *don't* indicate, in the Gerrit entry for the 
change, the bug that it caused, will that mean that the person who made the 
change might not be aware of the bug that it introduced, and does that mean 
that I should indicate, in the Gerrit entry for the change, the bug that it 
caused?
