He's probably using the Offical Bug-LilyPond Terminology (tm),
which states that problems which require extra code are missing
features, whereas problems in existing code are bugs.  (where
5-line fixes are still considered "no extra code".  Or something
like that)

It's taken years for this to catch on, so don't complain about it
now!  :)
