We do have a lower bound on the number of observed crashes to conclude the step to be a bisect bad:
wantBadRuns:=max(2, (total-infra)/6) // For 10 runs, require 2 crashes. For 20, require 3.
But apparently it's not enough. We should be also looking at least at the correspondence of the observed crash types to the crash type of the original bisected issue.

lost connection
crashes seem to regularly derail the bisection process. A recent example:https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/T/#ef85d48463732e6ac91be891e77e9bf90ba88ddee
In the case above, the problems began here:
