No, I think it can legitimately be called an unlocking bug. De minimus, the system should either forbid the attempted unlocking (“this topic has timed out and cannot needs unlocked”) or provide a warning and a confirmation (“are you sure you want to unlock this topic? It has timed out per the group setting and will be relockrf automatically within 24 hours”).

Call it a bug with being able to manually unlock a topic.

I wouldn't call it a bug there either.  You know as well as I do that if there were no way to unlock a topic, someone would ask for it because they'd accidentally locked the wrong topic.  Or needed to unlock an old topic that had been auto-locked, as you want to.
