The thing is that it's inconsistent to both say it's minor, and also

apply for a freeze exception from the release team, they're not likely
to be impressed by a minor bug.
If you're arguing that it meets the definition of important ("a bug
which has a major effect on the usability of a package, without
rendering it completely unusable to everyone"), that would be a
different matter. Is that the case? I might be willing to cherry-pick
the patch from upstream if the argument is that the bug should actually
have a higher severity.
I am not pushing, asking or arguing. I am only bringing this bug to
parted and d-i maintainers' attention and letting you decide what to do.
