Blocks and CC are routinely useful for developers reporting bugs, if you
suspect a particular patch of introducing the bug or know a meta-bug it is
a case of. Perhaps move them to an "advanced users" section below the
Commit button rather than removing altogether?
(Assigned To is less useful since it might encourage assigning a bug to
someone who is not in fact working on it based on some hope that they
should be working on it.)
