> The fact that 8 out of 10 crashes happened on null or near null, makes the crash qualifies to skip the volume threshold.

FWIW the "crash near null" here is in fact just a `MOZ_RELEASE_ASSERT` failing, in that particular case. (Maybe it makes sense to consider those as the same thing.)

> In case of bug 1863177, the crash happened on 8 different installations on the last two weeks.

I'm not sure how we identify installations, but maybe it's too strict? It's pretty clear to me that those 8 different crashes were all on the same installation, for some definition of installation -- they all have an identical "install time" field (`2023-10-31 19:20:56`), identical hardware and OS metadata fields, and near-identical URLs (all 127.0.0.1; maybe a fuzzer or something else with local testing).

(Edit: I'm aware that the URL is a protected/hidden field in the crash report, and the bot might not have access to it; I just mention it since [for those with access] it's just a point of additional confirmation, on top of what is already pretty-clear-evidence IMO that those 8 crashes look like the same installation.)
