Correct.

Not easily. But I have some ideas for giving priority to
failures that are marked for retesting in the future.

Where is that written?

That is wrong.
piuparts is chewing on a significant backlog of packages:
jessie2bpo2stretch/ waiting-to-be-tested=1 waiting-for-dependency-to-be-tested=1
bullseye-rcmd/ waiting-to-be-tested=9 waiting-for-dependency-to-be-tested=0
stretch2buster-rcmd/ waiting-to-be-tested=10 waiting-for-dependency-to-be-tested=1
stable2sid/ waiting-to-be-tested=44 waiting-for-dependency-to-be-tested=31
testing2sid/ waiting-to-be-tested=45 waiting-for-dependency-to-be-tested=134
stable22sid/ waiting-to-be-tested=55 waiting-for-dependency-to-be-tested=815
sid-merged-usr/ waiting-to-be-tested=75 waiting-for-dependency-to-be-tested=83
wheezy2jessie-lts/ waiting-to-be-tested=232 waiting-for-dependency-to-be-tested=611
oldstable222sid/ waiting-to-be-tested=5345 waiting-for-dependency-to-be-tested=9246
The processing preferences in piuparts are
1) untested packages
2) packages marked for retesting, starting with failing ones
failed logs get marked for retesting after 2 days
passed logs get marked for retesting after three months
(this process gets throttled if the slaves cannot process them in time)
failed logs expire (i.e. they get deleted) after about a week
(throttled to about 50-100 logs per day)
This expiration process ensures progress in situations like these.
The ~200 failures in sid are all queued for rechecking, but wait
for idle slaves.
Using the expiration process, they should all get retested within a few days.
This does work. E.g. pocl migrated yesterday after being blocked by piuparts for a few days.
