Kind of off topic but some people are really bad at writing jira tickets.
"Show the user a list of projects [eof]"
Ok but like, only their projects, right? Do they need to be ordered? Searchable? Paginated? Only active ones or soft deleted ones, too? Do you just need the name or do you need metadata too?
Somehow product doesn't love my stance of "if it's not on the ticket or in a sop, the behavior is undefined and you get what you get" stance.
If it's someone else's job to design things, then that's a pretty terrible specification. But depending on your role, it's common enough for there to be one person who designs and builds a feature like "User projects dashboard", and the job is to decide what's important based on the product. Especially with smaller companies.
