Team's Response

Triaged as NotInScope. The ability to search for non-alphanumeric characters does not take away from its function of searching for names with alphanumeric characters only.

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.NotInScope]

Reason for disagreement: This could lead to the issue of users accidentally searching for someone buy name but adding a full stop or symbol that is easy to miss. Thus, there will be no results shown and they may think that the person is not in their contacts list, however, it is simply a small typo that they could have missed. This could have been prevented by disallowing users to search using symbols or give a warning.
