        Because, unlike the nag reports, the bi-weekly reports (by
 date and by maintainer) are optional; you may choose to subscribe top
 the mailinglist.

        You mean, just go in and close all bugs? Surely you do not
 mean that? Or are you trying to be insulting? You think if the bugs
 had easy solutiuons they would still be unfixed? If you indeed do
 think all the old bugs are trivial to fix, please send in patches/do
 NMU's fixing them.
