I've never had much success getting a "won't fix" decision out of a PM or designer, and my time is too limited and valuable to spend debating it. If developers all know "low priority" means "never do" and "stakeholders" believe that their pet quibble will be fixed one day (even though they will never allocate time to do that) then work can continue in a sensible fashion.
