Description

PPT provides three GitHub issue templates, but GitHub itself adds "Blank issue" to that list, which is basically the same as our "General issue." Should we remove "General issue" so the issue reporter is not confused?

Research direction

Review the three GitHub issue templates and compare the existing “General issue” with GitHub’s built-in “Blank issue,” using the linked screenshot for context. Confirm whether they are functionally redundant, then update the template set so the issue reporter is not presented with duplicate choices.
