Hi Noa - To me, it really depends on your process. Your workflow should mirror your process. If you don't like you process, then change that, but model your process on the tool. 

Use of Issue Types for me comes down to how you want to handle different types of work (or even how you want to report on the different work). Different issue types can have different workflows. 

Finally, screens fields can be mapped to issue types. So you can narrow down the fields that are seen on the screen by issue type to make it less cluttered for the user.
