It's a bug, sure. The V in CVE is for "vulnerability", which is why people treat CVEs as more than just bugs.
If every bug got a CVE, practically every commit would get one and they'd be even less useful than they are now.
At that point, why not just use commit hashes for CVEs and get rid of the system entirely if we're going to say every bug should get a CVE?

If your suggested response to a human DoS is "why can't the humans just do more work and write more difficult-to-word-correctly communication", then you're not understanding the problem.
