I think this makes sense. I've seen many situations of large software projects where some bug is just open for months or even years and actually very easy to fix. In hindsight then, it was then a lot of missed value if the bug just lingered around for no good reason. If there was some tool that could just run in the background and randomly pop up a PR from time to time, then that would be cool. Good luck!

Yep, these bugs can be trivial but that initial context switch, creating a branch, etc tends to drain your energy. Sweep can do this right now, you just have to label it yourself. We're doing this right now so you don't get flooded with PRs if you have a lot of open issues.

The risk of introducing new bugs while fixing old ones should not be underestimated. Software development is a delicate process, and even seemingly minor bug fixes can have unintended consequences. Striking a balance between bug fixing and feature development is crucial to maintain a stable and reliable codebase.
