If it's a logic defect or regression that's being fixed,
shouldn't the logic defect or regression be fixed as
reasonably soon as possible?

The nature of the fix should ideally be optimal for
backporting, but I believe that should not stop any
consideration for the standalone fix itself.

What do you think?
