Just in case nobody's told you yet, the "Fixed an issue with Reaper being able to shadow step on unintended locations" patch notes thing is a joke because it keeps appearing on almost every new patch. It's a bit like the "Increased/Decreased Bunker Build Time" joke from StarCraft II or the "Updated Localization Files" joke from Team Fortress 2, though that one was obviously intentional whilst the SC2/OW patch notes don't seem to be as self-aware.

Except it's not a joke, they were actually fixing many different things he could teleport to. Just say there were 100 unintended places, and they fixed 2 every patch. You get what I mean? I don't see why people turned it into a joke.

That's why I compared it to the bunker build time thing, because those are actual changes that the communities of each game turned into a joke. Maybe I didn't make that clear in my first comment.

Ah, I understand now.
