Comment (by Otto42):

 To clarify: There are two hidden "forums" where plugin and theme topics
 are all held together. The "Support" views for plugins and themes are just
 that, "views" of specific sets of topics in those hidden forums.

 - For their view alone, plugin/theme authors can see a "Stick" link on
 hovering over a topic. That sticks the topic in their specific "view" of
 their support posts.

 - Moderators of the whole forums can also see a Stick link in the Topic
 Admin section, as well as have that dropdown. This sticks the topic to the
 forum as-a-whole. We use it for threads like the master list, or the
 welcome to the forum topics you find here:
 https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/

 These two different kinds of stickies are different and so have different
 links. Only moderators/admins should be able to see the Topic Admin and/or
 Sticky dropdown. Authors should not.

 So, yeah, okay, using the same wording sucks, I grant you that. But
 there's only so many ways to express the concept of "sticky". :)
