The "bad" tickets is where you actually bring value though.

The "good" tickets can be given to junior dev/low cost contractor/ChatGPT.

Whenever I read things like this I feel like a lot of developers don't understand what their job actually is. It's not just translating tickets to code.

If the people whose job it is to keep in contact with the customer and collect requirements don't know either, developer's guess is as good as theirs. Otherwise, individual developers may not be the best persons to decide all the details. You risk wasting time by doing the wrong thing either way.
