We believe it is of low severity, as the colour bar refers to the deadline and thus it should be intuitive that the progress bar refers to how close the task is from the deadline. However, we agree there could be a possibility that users might be confused.

Reason for disagreement: The UG referred to the bar as a progress bar. You cannot say it is intuitive that this progress bar refers to how close a task is from its deadline. In fact, most progress bars usually refer to how far along a task has progressed. The only way I managed to figure out the purpose of the length of the progress bar is by testing it out myself.
In the UG, the colors of the progress bars are clearly explained. However, the UG did not explain why the progress bars of different tasks vary in length, which can lead users to become confused as to what the length of the progress bar might indicate. Does it indicate how much of the task has been done, or how close to the deadline the task is?
