Yes.

Technically speaking, all P1s should be fixed by the next release they're 
relevant for. So, given enough resources, your task should have been fixed by 
5.1.0.

We don't have enough resources. At some point, it becomes more important to 
release the fixes we already have than to spend more time trying to fix some 
issues.

That's a fallacy. In fact, it's a patently wrong and false statement. But, 
since you said it's a rant, I'll take this as "opinion, not based on reality, 
clouded by frustration".
