Have a *look* at the "remaining actions" page 
<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/One%20Hundred%20Papercuts/One%20Hundred%20Papercuts%20will%20make%20Ubuntu%20shine/Remaining%20actions>, 
and you will see this item:

     [o] I reduce the definition of papercut to not include reports
   where the affected package is "Linux".


This is because these reports are *difficult* to be improved, triaged or 
fixed for non experts; and doing any of this phases wrong will have 
*worse consequences* that what is normal* 
<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/kernel>, making the bug fix 
process much longer.
