Yes it is. They're not not false positives until they're reported and consume maintainer time.

Yes it is. They're not not false positives until they're reported and consume maintainer time.
The article quote was being given as the supposed source for "Claude Code also found one thousand false positive bugs, which developers spent three months to rule out", so should substantiate that claim - which it doesn't.
If the claim was instead just "a good portion of the hundreds more potential bugs it found might be false positives", then sure.
