    Aren't they?  If so, shouldn't they be?

Lots of people read that list, and only a few of them can make
changes in the source code.  Everyone else has no reason
to be concerned with bug tracker messages.

But even most of those people have no reason to be interested in the
bug tracker messages for any particular bug.  Usually only the person
who reported it and the person who fixes it are interested in the bug
tracker status.

I presume the bug tracker will send the messages separately to the
O.P.  And the person who fixes it and closes the bug item knows he did
so.

Other people will use the bug tracker to search for unfixed bugs, etc.
But they won't do that by looking at these messages.  They will
use another interface

So there is no need to send these messages to bug-gnu-emacs.
