It was from the unofficial "official" Ubuntu Nvidia driver PPA. I remember issues with resuming from suspend was a noted problem on Nvidia's website at the time although I don't know if they were referring to this bug specifically.

Fine. What about the hundred(thousands?) of other critical bugs with open source software that Ubuntu could fix?

Like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1575426

OR

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/+source/gnome-session/+bug/1575434

Which was marked as "fixed" because it was fixed in a newer Gnome version. Presumably it's still an issue on 16.04. What the actual hell?
