I made a mistake backporting Fixes #34994 and #35386 – Applied checkbox-row unconditionally in Admin. by adamchainz · Pull Request #18086 · django/django (github.com) and subsequently needed to revert the backports and the release notes. I hate making mistakes but it has helped me understand the backporting policy better and given me experience in a revert. If I set-up a blog, I will add some reflections there.
