TIL that my hatred of stale bot is somewhat misplaced, because it seems that it can be configured in a way I think is a lot more acceptable.

Shame when it's set to be aggressive, it can be a serious hindrance. Issues almost act like a user forum, and can be super useful even if the maintainer doesn't want to put energy into that particular issue. I've found some really helpful work-arounds in "stale" issues.
