Actually, the reverse is probably true. Bugs may be fixed or invalidated with no additional effort as a result of intentional changes to the game. In such an event, the effort spent fixing the bug would have been wasted.
Don't bullshit people. I'm programmer in a company where our first value is quality of the product and the code. In a product that we have been developing for over 3 years, there has never been a bug present more than a week (we release new versions weekly), and none of them has been severe bug. We also provide new features very often, and fixing bugs that we find on the way doesn't stop us from that. And how do we do that? We fix bugs before writing new code, we write test before writing implementations, and we practice pair programming to always have another person looking at what we write and provide alternative ideas.

What is happening with minecraft would be unacceptable at our company. We paid for this game and we have all the rights to demand quality and demand bugs to be fixed, especially the ones that have been present for over a year and have most of the votes in Jira. There are 11 bugs that are older than a year and have over 100 votes:

It have the same issue. "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings" also worked for me. My graphics card Nvidia GeForce GT 730M.
