Description

Nobody is really using it as far as I know. If we want to visualize results for debugging reasons, we can just connect to the backend DB manually. Another option could be to ingest the issues into BigQuery so we can also query them and see evolution over time, etc.

WDYT @Archaeopteryx @La0, any concerns?
