When a hopper has a chest under it and a block next to it, the hopper looks to the block instead of the chest

I find this fact slightly infuriating as as many as 50% of the 54% that are closed as duplicates are still never solved.
On here bugs are closed as dupes for some other slightly related bugs or never get assigned and get only closed when a new version “accidentally” fixes one of them.
Issues are tackled roughly in order by the number of votes. Duplicate reports do not add to the vote totals, and so, in a way, the more duplicates an issue has, the less likely it is to get fixed quickly. Duplicates are usually submitted by users who are unfamiliar with the tracker, and either unwilling to search for existing reports or incompetent at doing so. They're equally unlikely to notice the voting feature or understand its importance.
I don’t have a problem with bugs are closed as dupes when there are already bug reports describing the problem reported in said bug report. I only have a problem with closing bugs as dupes for bugs that are not describing the problem an said bug report. Like “Hoppers look to blocks next to they when a chest is uder the hopper” is not a dupe of “The hopper only works to place items in the chest if the player shift-clicks onto the chest […]”.
How is the issue described here different from MC-5733? They both describe the same "problem": hoppers connect to whichever block face you right-click on to place them, while the user expectation is that hoppers will automatically target an adjacent inventory (without considering the possibility that there could be multiple adjacent inventories, and thus it being unclear which one it should connect to in such an instance).
