As this is an error regarding the usability of the Minimax sequence diagram for understanding how the algorithm works with a missing self-referential bar, it can be parked under the Minimax sequence diagram documentation issue.
The 'Original' Bug
[The team marked this bug as a duplicate of the following bug]
Sequence Diagram for MiniMax algorithm
Note from the teaching team: This bug was reported during the Part II (Evaluating Documents) stage of the PE. You may reject this bug if it is not related to the quality of documentation.
The sequence diagram for the minimax algorithm does not properly follow the UML notation from class. For example activation bars should end after returning and self invocations need their own activation bars

Their Response to the 'Original' Bug
[This is the team's response to the above 'original' bug]
The minimax sequence diagram is an artefact from the PE-D where no bugs were reported. There exists several documentation bugs which can cause an annoyance and hinder the flow or cause confusion, hence a medium rating seems reasonable.

It appears that the activation bar for ":BoardScoreTuple" has ended prematurely.
