Don't send a notification if you cast the final vote to reopen your own question

Yesterday, my question Is Stack Exchange staff removing GoFundMe links? was reopened. As of a few weeks ago, this results in an inbox notification (see below). However, I reopened it myself(the author) cast the final vote to reopen, which makes the notification pointless or even worse: it's noise noise. If you comment on your own post, you don't get a notification either. 

Can the functionality be improved such that this doesn't happen anymore?

(I reopened the question using a dupehammer; it could be that the code just didn't account for this particular edge case but otherwise works fine.)
