No, it is not wrong. The overview of past issues is historic and really only for informational purposes. The page is about _daily_ builds, which means that the only thing users should normally be interested in is if an issue is valid for _today_'s images or not. Thus, if an issue is no longer listed in the "current" list, they know it should be safe to download a new image. If they have an old image, it is more important when the issue was first reported than when it was solved because that will give them some indication if the image was affected or not. After all, they will probably not be looking at the page at all if they are not experiencing the issue.
