`help` command executes command if it is not included in the help feature #8

I believe that this is a feature flaw since it may lead to accidental execution of commands that are excluded from the help command's list of commands.

Team's Response

Exit and help are the only commands that cannot be executed with help command.

We have already documented this very extensively, so this is not in scope.

In the screenshot you provided, there is already documentation on which commands the help command can be applied to. Furthermore, the warning in the picture also informs the reader that executing command help for commands excluded for the list will just result in execution of the command.

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.NotInScope]

Reason for disagreement: I believe that documenting the behaviour of the feature flaw bug under the help command is not a proxy for the feature flaw not being present. This could still lead to accidental execution of a command, which is not user-friendly behaviour in my opinion.
