Not at the expense of time/effort that can be better spent putting coreboot on more products. Besides, that would just increase deltas between trees with little or no gain.
I disagree and your first argument can be used every time something requires effort to make it suitable for upstream inclusion. In my opinion it is something in the development process that needs to be addressed and improved.
The person reading the source expects the URL to be accessible especially when almost all of these “crosbug” URLs can be accessed.

Thanks,
