That's what the first sentence in the paragraph you quoted says.

Here I was referring to when something that isn't strictly a bugfix
goes to next or when something goes to master intentionally or by
mistake and then cherry-picked into next by Sage or others after
discussion. The point I was trying to make is that *that* is something
out of the ordinary and hence something that newcomers don't have to
worry about so much.
Thanks,
