More like trying to remove an invasive cancer that has spread to all parts of your body whilst you're still needing to move around, be productive and live your life.

I'd say that for many large companies, Jira is better than the alterntive of having multiple systems that need to be kept in sync. Steering any large company will be a mess, no software will ever make that easy. And any software designed to be that flexible will end up being slow eventually.

I guess the cancer is analogous to JIRA itself, not to the migration of JIRA.

Migrating out of JIRA is analogous to "trying to remove an invasive cancer".

And, since this a thread about JIRA, a lot of bureaucracy
