> @shipilev I can create a new issue with exactly the prescribed text. But changing the purpose of the issue that was filed to be a simple back-out seems like its loosing information.

No need to create new issues. Guide mentions "Alternative 2": you just convert this "investigation" issue into "backout" issue, and move it to be a subtask of the original issue. There is no loss of information, just a few metadata changes?
