It's not going to "kill" the bug - it will ask the submitter to check whether 
the bug still applies to newer Fedora version. 
Why does everyone want to put more and more burden on maintainers and arguing 
about small things that users should do? 
How can you expect a maintainer to fix/respond to hundreds of bugs and not 
expect the user to verify his/her bug still applies?
