I'm not really sure what is y and what is n in this context.. Readers reading this might be confused... Perhaps its better to state what y and n means...

Team's Response

Both the user guide and the warning text message found in the command result box of TutorPets have stated that 'y' and 'n' are inputs that users are required to be entered into the command box so as to confirm whether to proceed with the current command.

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.Rejected]

Reason for disagreement: I think the phrase "warning prompting user input" followed by entering 'y' or 'n' is a bit unclear...

"Warning prompting user input" sounds ambiguous as warning are usually cautionary advice but in this sentence, it seems to be used as a prompt... In this case, not stating what 'y' or 'n' might cause the user to misinterpreted the sentence and the expected behavior of the application.

Would be a lot clearer if it was change to "a confirmation prompt will be shown". This would help the user to understand that for the given scenario, the program will prompt them for confirmation and 'y' means yes while 'n' means no.
