Is this fundamentally different than just using tags on issues to separate ready to work on things from initial user submissions?

>>cortes+Ud
One difference is that if I submit an issue, and it requires some back and forth to figure out the actionable improvement, then suddenly the issue is very noisy.

Whereas if it goes via a Discussion first, the back and forth happens elsewhere.

Arguably an separate issue could still do this, but it being a discussion sets the expectation better.

>>sleeke+2s
This kind of thing happens in Jira or any company's internal bug tracker, and GitHub Issues is not any different. If you want a certain kind of "hygiene", you can always do that in the existing system instead of inventing a whole different solution.

People do that all the time in bug trackers.
