No, it isn't.  I was asked whether the bug should block, and answered
that it shouldn't, providing my rationale.  Given that answer, common

is not TRT.

That a bug doesn't block the release doesn't mean it cannot be easily
fixed, or that a fix won't be accepted on the release branch.  I said
that as well back when I was asked.
