Research direction
Read .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md and locate the checkbox instructions described in the issue. Replace the checkbox guidance with the proposed deletion guidance, then verify that the template no longer creates a progress bar in new issues.

Description
We might want to rethink the use of checkboxes in .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md because it causes the issue list to show a "progress bar" (1 of 1 or 1 of 5) like this:

EDIT:
Perhaps we could replace
<!-- Use [x] to mark your choice. -->
with something like
<!-- Delete everything but your choice. -->.
