The bug title makes me believe I didn't convey the scope of my comment
well enough. I was referring specifically to the _nontechnical_
decisions section, which seems to boil down essentially to appointments.

For the rest, I fully agree it's worth (and important) documenting
technical decisions. Given you're working on standardizing BTS usage for
tech-ctte purposes, automation can probably be built on top of that.

Cheers.
