Productivity sink for whom? Someone using the JDK, or someone working
on it? Arguably the lack of (to pick a random example) extension
methods in the language is a productivity sink for some developers in
the latter category.
This suggests labels that include the token “maintainer.” Maybe one of:
affects-maintainers
maintainer-burden
maintainer-nuisance
maintainer-overhead
maintainer-sink
maintainer-slog
maintainer-slowdown
maintainer-tax
... or something like that.
