Much agreed. Phabricator is used to keep track of many other things
besides
bugs, in our team we keep our whole backlog there thus it is expected to
grow at a much faster rate than a bug list would. A backlog is a repository
of ideas and some of those are clearly defined tasks but not others.
It could be more interesting, although probably on the team level rather
than globally, is the number of open tasks for a given priority. If, for
example, the number of tasks with normal priority is growing continuously,
that does signal some sort of problem with the planning.
