I mean... that is kind of what happens with a lot of these projects.
As they get larger you get more and more of those obnoxious jerks who will close ANY issue if it even slightly is related to something in the past or isn't formatted correctly and so forth.
Personally? I am a firm believer in working with (actual) users to make things better. But I have definitely had weeks where it is just "Yup. We got mentioned by Youtuber X again" and we more or less ignore any issue not made by an established contributor.
