Shouldn't future work like this just go into the backlog of your ticketing system?

discuss

order

In theory perhaps. In practice, if you're stuck using the likes Jira or ADO, the friction of getting something into the ticketing system is excessive. If you're using a ticketing system designed for programmers and not project managers, then maybe it could be organized for a flow like that.

The author mentions that a lot of these will eventually end up in comments or elsewhere, but it’s nice to capture random thoughts without adding the friction of deciding where it should land, what priority the ticket should be, etc, etc is quite nice.

This matches the spirit of Getting Things Done's "Inbox" quite well. The goal is to minimize friction for recording thoughts/ideas/todos that come into your head. You write them down and into the Inbox they go, to be sorted/dealt with at some later time.
