We aren't "running out of bits", but we have a highly limited amount of time and screen real-estate. The reason it was marked as such was so that other people didn't waste time on an unreproducible problem until it was fixed to be reproducible. At worst, it sits there and wastes many people's time, thus getting in the way of actually reproducible questions getting seen and answered. Note, that this is not regarding this one question, but thousands - certainly there are a large number of items selected for moderator action.
