Am I "old" for wanting to have a discussion about a bug and its potential fixes *before* opening a pull request? I'm frequently chided for talking about the issue first rather than just making a PR right away (i.e. "wasting our time"). Personally I tend to reject PRs that had no discussion unless they're trivial or obvious.
