What is the difference between "relates to" and "is related to" issue link types in JIRA?

In JIRA, "relates to" and "is related to" are two different issue link types used to establish relationships between issues. "Relates to" indicates a weaker relationship, typically used when issues have some connection but not necessarily a strong one. On the other hand, "is related to" implies a stronger relationship between issues, indicating a more direct or significant connection. Understanding the nuances between these link types is important for accurately reflecting the relationships between issues in JIRA.
