nonproblems
Things working fine
Nonproblems are things that aren't actually problems, despite being treated as such.
The term often carries dismissive force—what someone else considers urgent, you consider a nonproblem: Whether to use one space or two after a period is a nonproblem.
It can also describe issues that have been resolved or never existed: The Y2K bug turned out to be a nonproblem.
