The answers can be found in the filtering done in the UDD query.
First the "Suites" are set differently (the b.d.o/release-critical/
testing is similar to selecting Bullseye), then the "Filters"
section has several things set to 'exclude'.
(Note that release-team has been busy setting will-remove and can-defer
tags on bug reports for bullseye already.)
The deb.li/rcbugs (UDD) query gives a much better view on remaining work
to be tackled by the general contributor. Things that are already solved
in sid is hopefully just a matter of it migrating to testing for example
(so including those bugs is not very useful for a non-release-team
members point of view). IMHO it would be better if
bugs.debian.org/release-critical/ linked to relevant UDD queries.
