Yup. I just found the following page:
https://confluence.atlassian.com/jira/configuring-renderers-185729478.html
I don't see "Steps to Reproduce" in there, but we won't be converting any
Tigris issues into that field. We don't need monospace there. ... as long
as we have monospace in Description and Comments, then we're good to go.
I'd further posit: we can lose some fidelity in the conversion. The above
seems like we'll get 99%
