I have server logs in jsonlines format in a file. My goal is to display some basic information (URL, referrer, time stamp, IP address, and user agent) for each log line with a particular header set to a specific value. Headers are in $.request.headers and are an array of key-value pair arrays.

Figuring out this use case from the jq docs or jqplay has been a major struggle for me. I feel that this use case reflects 90% of what I would want to use jq for. I feel that if I can't get over this hump just from docs, there's no way I could justify bringing this tool on board with my team.
