That's actually bad in such cases:

When the BTS has a "fixed" version it does not matter whether the bug is 
open or closed - the BTS then does version tracking and knows that the
bug is still present in older versions (for RC bugs still present in
stable this also prevents archiving of the bug).

"reopen" wipes "fixed", which wrongly reopens the bug for buster/unstable.

Agreed.
