Comment on Evolving GitHub Issuesparent

Comments

This tension is why issue systems become too complex. The ask is reasonable, but implementing it makes the issue system more complex until all the simple asks make the system collapse under the weight of it...

Absolutely. The sum total of reasonable requests can be an unreasonable system. It’s a paradox just like Gabriel’s horn: finite volume, infinite surface area.

Reading through this comment section makes me see exactly how something simple like a GitHub issue becomes a JIRA issue.

This is why I like simple, opinionated solutions. This kind of discussion becomes superfluous.
