Team's Response

Thanks for the suggestion! The User guide as you quoted says that it only accepts numbers, and we feel that even without the ability to add spaces, it is still as usable of a product.

## :question: Issue severity Team chose [`severity.Low`] Originally [`severity.Medium`] - [x] I disagree **Reason for disagreement:** Thanks for responding. However, according to the course website, a severity low bug is one "that is unlikely to affect normal operations of the product [and] appears only in very rare situations and causes a minor inconvenience only." (screenshot 1). I would say that this issue does not just occur in very rare situations as there could be a variety of reason for why the user might want to have spaces between phone number, such as for having spaces for every 4 digits like "9999 9999" or having spaces between multiple phone numbers like "12345678 09876543". Furthermore, this causes more than minor inconvenience as there would be no alternative to accomplishing the task of storing multiple phone numbers. As such, I would classify this as a flaw that causes occasional inconvenience to some users, but they can continue to use the product, hence a severity of medium. Screenshot 1
