Jira tickets (and Tara tickets) are going to have user data (including poorly-defined user requirements). Turning that into synthetic data with Synthesised will almost definitely lead to developers building software that does not match the original requirements.

If you have real user data in non-production systems (e.g., development JIRA/tracking system) you're already doing it wrong. At the firm I work at we scan all non-prod systems for user identifying data and flag it up for removal.
