Not at all.
Even though it would be better to have shorter headings, putting the
full description of the issues in the subtree itself.
Doing M-x org-mode on TODO will hide all the the subtrees.
Each item can then be unfolded with the TAB key, which cycle the
visibility of the entry at point through these states: fold, show
children, show all. Nothing that you wouldn't be able to achieve
with outline and a combination of hide-* show-*, but Org makes it
easy.

M-x org-columns
The line starting with #+COLUMNS: is really a formatting line defining
what properties should be displayed in the columns. Obviously the total
width of the columns is too large for you. When the column view is
active, you can move columns to the left or to the right with M-<left>
or M-<right>.
But first things first: the column view is a pretty advanced feature of
Org. Before that, there are to-do keywords and tags.
The manual is very accurate, but let me know if you need more pointers.
