After skimming the official docs, milestones seem to be clearly useful.
The docs are confusing though because the guides in the link above all talk about associating PRs and issues in a single repo, when trying to create a milestone there is a tooltip saying "Use Milestones to create collections of Issues and Pull Requests for a particular release or project." Love when overloaded terms are used ambiguously.
Anyway, created a milestone, and playing around with it confirmed that
whereas GitHub projects allow organizing issues over multiple repositories (case in point: this project, main), milestones only work on the level of individual repositories (see _Proper OTP application" milestone, and try to add issues to it from other repos).
Would using them make our work easier? TODO: start research with
github milestones
