There are some actions in Asana, like tags and projects, which are immediate and inline, often with a hotkey. In jira, it could literally be 4 full screens.

Other examples include filtering and search. Google has raised the bar so high in both gmail and core search for how a query should work. Jira says fuck you here is JQL, and it isn't at all obvious why.

Yes, search is really bad. We now have a corporation wide JIRA and searches return results from all 100+ projects. If I want to search in my project I have to use JQL.
