Unclear statement or typo #59

Closed msmock closed 4 years ago

msmock commented 4 years ago

Line 391 in in IUA.b, Rev.1.2 from September 21, 2019, states: A user with a mobile device wishes to retrieve a medical document to which they have authorized access.

It's not clear who or what is meant with they.

"They" is the user in the same sentence (at least I interpret that clearly as the user in the sentence - if this is not the case I would like to know)

Maybe you're right. Then at least the grammar is not correct, because A user is singular, while they is plural.
