> Having it seem like a bug would be an effective way to block it intentionally.

Just like how only the true messiah denies his divinity, it doesn't give innocent bugs much of a chance.

In fact, now we can show that all bugs are suspicious, with apologies to the interesting number paradox:

The least intentional looking bug is the most effectively hidden, and therefore should probably be suspected of being intentional. Since it's now suspect, it's longer the least intentional looking bug, so the next least suspicious bug suddenly deserves a bit more scrutiny, and so on.

That's not my point. It's suspicious because of its specificity and timing; its bug-like presentation isn't evidence either way.
