So, I've made a few threads on the Minecraft Feedback page, but every time, they have the "Post is Pending Approval" message, but then get unceremoniously denied.
Yet, somehow people manage to make posts with random letters as their title, and literally nothing in their description, and still apparently get approval.
Only the moderators of that site would really know why some get passed through and others get denied. But I will say that I agree entirely with your issue. I have submitted a half dozen of my own previous ideas to the website and they were showing as pending before they mysteriously disappeared with no warning or reasoning.
(moving to Discussion as this thread itself is not a suggestion for the game, just about suggestions in general)

Cop: Sir, did you know you were going 5 mph over the limit? What's the hurry?
Sir: did you not see that guy blow past us both like we were standing still?! Why didn't you go after him?
Cop: Sir, do you like to fish?
Sir: why, yes, yes I do.
Cop: and when you go fishing, do you catch every fish in the lake?
Sir:...okay, so who do I make the check out to?
The above was the gist of a Reader's Digest joke in one of their many joke sections. I'm pretty sure it applies directly to either of your experiences.
It seems like a strange way for the developers to get serious feedback. Even if the feedback was duplicate feedback, there should be a link back to the original feedback so that users can vote on the idea and the pages shouldn't just be removed. By the way, I get a page not found for the second two links the OP posted. Apparently those pages were removed after all.
I've submitted a couple posts to the feedback site, and they were pending for approval, then removed shortly afterwards. (within less than a day) I'm still confused as to how all this works. do posts need to be voted on to increase the chance of it being approved, or do posts need to be approved before being able to be voted on?

Maybe someone can explain this?
