This Bugs Me

After switching our focus to the Pandas library, I came came across a bug that has a healthy amount of comments and contributions. The specific problem is that there is an issue with slicing float indices using a data frame but there appears to be no issue with slicing integers. There is a great amount of discussion for this specific bug as it dates back to 2014. It seems to be one of the more prominent issues in the Pandas repository, and there is still recent activity in the thread. This bug is something our team could look further into and possibly resolve. Some contributors argued that this is a debatable issue, and that the behavior might not be completely problematic. Other entries describe that they should further clarify the issue, and designate it to a more specific thread. My theory as to why this bug has not been resolved, is because it is too general, and the community is divided on whether or not this constitutes as an issue. One person explained that this bug might exist because of old syntax, and outdated practices. There is still much debate on if this bug has been resolved. I personally was unable to reproduce this because my development environment is not set up adequately. Although there appears to be no official "bug tracker", there is an active community of users reporting issues with the software, and developers discussing the issues and if they are worth looking into. I am new to the world of bug fixing and triaging and is something that I need to develop skills in.
