Sounds like to me that it is a finer grained version of "Invalid". The idea being that rather than possibly insulting the OP with an "Invalid" statement, one could mark it as "Opinion" where it is effectively closed, but leaves open the possibility that it might have to be revisited later. I guess this helps to distinguish between the bugs that are blatantly Invalid and the bugs that might be a little bit more ambiguous. At least, that is my interpretation...
