One way the distinction gets used where I work is to have custom / required fields keyed on the ticket type.

Oh, you want to make a bug ticket in my project? In that case, required fields include "steps to reproduce", "expected result", and "actual result". You want to make a feature ticket in my project? In that case, required fields include "rationale" and "acceptance criteria".

Earlier this year, I reported a bug in Firefox. In my report, I included steps to reproduce the issue, the expected result and the actual result (because I've been on the other side). There were no back-and-forth messages to clarify the issue, and it was fixed in a short amount of time (well, short for a project of that size).
