Feb 14, 2019 at 19:24 | comment | added | Daniel | If they are able to make precise estimates with this sizing chart, why not just use hours? I won't argue that all work needs relative estimation - it doesn't. Some work is known and can be estimated in actual time in which cases it is far simpler to just estimate with real-time units. Story points are used in relative estimation which provides value in complex and unfamiliar work where precise time estimates aren't possible. | |

I feel this answer needs a disclaimer of sorts. The general use of story points is not tied directly to time. That's what velocity estimation is for. I wish your answer pointed out that your approach is a special case: the degenerate case where story points and hours are the same. | |

This is a framework and you can make some changes for your team, My Dev team always make a great and precise estimate with this sizing chart. | |
