That is a so so reason though ;).
JIRA can be a discussion hub and it should be used for discussion centred 
around user stories, bugs, etc... it is a delivery planning/agile planning tool 
not a mailing list or a forum for general discussion.

Creating stories/items to discuss bugs, a proposal under refinement or review 
(the lifetime of proposals could and should go there), etc... but some of the 
other material on this list would be better left to something like Discourse or 
mailing lists.

I do think we should use JIRA more to discuss and leave a better trace for the 
evolution of proposals and bugs raised against the language though. Creating 
tickets in JIRA and then leaving all the details and the discussion outside of 
JIRA is a bad practice that we should not encourage.
