That worried me too, a sort of inverse tragedy of the commons. I'll use a weeklong cooldown, _someone else_ will find the issue...

Until no-one does, for a week. To stretch the original metaphor, instead of an overgrazed pasture, we grow a communally untended thicket which may or may not have snakes when we finally enter.

That is statistically not possible, unless you are dealing with very small sample size.

The "until no one does" is not something that can happen in something like npm ecosystem, or even among the specific user of "left-pad".
