It took us most of the last 9 months working with a team of people to explore all of the settings and determine which ones were perfect for us. We wrote down in our words, not Atlassians what these settings did, and why we did or did not need to use them.

That process alone created a lot of behind the scenes mess, so the takeaway here is two-fold: Once you know the settings that work best for your organization, make sure you create a master project and lock them down.
