@codewithnick Thank you for opening this issue. Maintainers will check and approve if seems to be useful.

Hey @codewithnick!

Maintainers can't claim issues through the bot because they have the permission to get the issue assigned to themselves already. And sometimes, while explaining how to get an issue assigned to a fellow contributor, the issue might get accidentally assigned to the explainer. So, it was actually intentional.

I have also mentioned it in the Readme, maybe it might have been missed i guess:
