Re:Expressive Writing Cools Brain on Stressful Tasks by nine_k on Monday September 18, 2017 @10:44AM (#15276379)
OK, replace "forced" with "mandatory", and "prose" with "issue tracker".

"We have mandated that every task be tracked in Jira, with a predefined set of fields filled in."

Does it still look unreasonably oppressive? Is this an example of treating engineers like children?

(To me, expecting a person to write concise, mindful, well-structured prose is expecting them to show qualities of a well-developed grown-up.)
