I hope that 2024 will be the year when people stop pointing to duplicate or fixed bugs...

Firstly, I put multiple bug reports there to show that 'real programmers' are running into real bugs in the wild. This is necessary because otherwise when I point out bugs, I'm dismissed as a "PL fan" whose ivory tower views don't line up with the mainstream. See elsewhere in the comments.

Secondly, if I click into my first link (2015), it says resolved 2015. And by 'resolved' it means 'duplicate but not fixed'. Because when I clicked into its duplicate, it wasn't 'resolved' until 2018. What did they resolve if tickets are still being filed in 2019 and 2021?

My understanding is that Stream internals are a very complex piece of software that can have multiple different bugs. By the way, I agree with you that eager versions of the Stream methods should also be available directly on the collections.
The last three are open, open and won't fix. Not so promising for the flatMap method.
