But if there is only TODOs and not bugs, how managers will prevent the creation of 'high severity bugs' when they're in panic mode? I wish I was joking but that

  They create them and they go first in the queue. If there is more than one, they have to decide which is first. If there are conflicts then it's up to the managers to fight it out.

    That's not what I'm talking about: when a software is late there is a 'panic phase' by the managers where they forbid the creation of 'high severity' bug tickets. So if there is no more bug tickets what will happen when the managers are in 'panic mode'? Something to think about before removing bug tickets.

      Okay, hmm. It seems like if you already have a lot of high-priority work then logically, most new bugs will go after them in the queue. And if you're running out of time, that would amount to the same thing, since you'll never get to it. Also, so long as you have enough work queued up for a few weeks, there is not really much point to stack-ranking the remaining queue items anyway. Everything else is "lower priority".

  If you mean how to prevent them, well, no bugs so no way to create them. If you mean how they handle them, there is an incident procedure for that. If it's not really an incident but, well, I need this next week for Gartner Magic Quadrant...I have phone numbers of managers in my reporting chain.
