I don't think the analogy of town planning fits well. I think it depends how the tasks are broken down by the team. What if the tasks are created in the breadth-first approach, so that the goal is not to "fully complete" each neighborhood, but to get each neighborhood in a working state, like the "organic" approach the author mentioned?

I have found success using this approach on my team. And yes, agreed that we should use other software like Docs or Sheets for the project homebase, and only limit JIRA to Epics/stories tied to labels for the projects.
