RxJS version: This bug is not in the RxJS product.

Code to reproduce: This does not report a behavioral bug.

Expected behavior: This does not report a behavioral bug.

Actual behavior: This does not report a behavioral bug.

Additional information:
The issue reporting form offers a template simply titled "Bug report". The template is unfortunately only appropriate for reporting behavioral bugs, as the description indicates.
This could be solved either by making the template more general, or by giving it a more specific title like "Behavioral bug report".

This is expected, rxjs core team uses gh issues as team's backlog tracking with any code side behavior bug report only. #5970

For other topics, please use discussions.

@kwonoj I don't know what you mean by "team's backlog tracking", but this is certainly not expected. When we see a ticket template called Bug report, the expectation is that it allows reporting any bug.

Our issue template also include instructions

If you believe there is a bug in rxjs core need to be fixed, please fill out all template for repro, otherwise
core team may move issues into discussions. Also, all other non-bug report may closed without followup.

Word may not be clear and we may polish it later, but we do recommend to use discussions for non-code bug report and other discussions and also state core team can move issues into discussions.

@kwonoj that's indeed far from being clear, and this ticket is not about discussions. It is about issue reports. If developers even get to see that template's content, that's because they chose the incorrect template because they were confused in the first place.

This unfortunately persists, but I unfortunately will not be the one driving this further.
