I also have some pull request on draft. Some of the pull request was draft waiting for winget v 1.5 stable version to roll up. That issue was merged see microsoft/winget-cli#2909

When there is next update, it will hold off merged until the next stable versions released.

I am seeing the same issue on

> winget --version
v1.6.2721

is there some action to perform with winget in order to not manually add the package path(s)?
