Feel free to volunteer to help, in order to improve the quality and
the timeliness of the moderation.

It isn't spam.  The sender is an Emacs contributor.

I'm not sure I understand what you are suggesting here.  What better
system did you have in mind?

(In any case, discussing this as part of a specific bug report is
wrong; this should be taken to emacs-devel instead.)

That bug is indeed low priority, and the change will go to master,
which makes it even lower priority (since we are in the process of
pretesting Emacs 29.1).  The bug report is in my queue, and two days
is really way too short to ring the alarm bells about such a minor
issue.
