Jira's extreme customizability has been the perfect footgun in any enterprise I've seen. Any misguided over-engineering of attributes, status values, workflows, is made easy and can be project and team-specific. The default from where I stand, having had to automate around many a weird Jira & Confluence setup, synchronizing, pushing summaries to pages, etc... ...is that figuring out the name of a custom field through the hack of setting it to a comical value on your test Jira issue does get old eventually, and much convoluted Atlassian-based cleverness would be easier to deploy, operate, maintain, and so, so, so much snappier, with a straight custom built Django app.
