Invalid error message when using "d/o" in name
Input: edit 3 n/Maria d/o Hughman Patrick
I expected this command to be accepted as "d/o" is a valid name and is highly likely to be come across since this app is for managing job candidates. However, I am met with the following error message that it is an invalid name.
It would be good to allow for "d/o" to be accepted as it is relatively common for people to shorten "Daughter of" to "d/o" and this shortened version even be in their legal name as well.

[This is the team's response to the above 'original' bug]
As mentioned below, the UG clearly specifies that the name can only be alphanumeric and hence words like 's/o' are not in scope of the UG. Furthermore, the user receives a suitable error message when attempting to add a symbol to their name which would lead to them working around the issue e.g. by fully spelling out "son of".
Therefore, we will be assigning this as "Not_In_Scope"

:question: Issue duplicate status
Team chose to mark this issue as a duplicate of another issue (as explained in the Team's response above)
Reason for disagreement: [replace this with your explanation]
When adding a name with
S/O
, HiredFiredPro considers this as a invalid name. This is not representative of the real world where names can includeS/O
Steps to reproduce:
add n/Kushal s/o Zac j/Software Engineer p/98765432 e/johnd@example.com s/Python i/7.5 t/friends t/owesMoney
Actual:
Expected: The candidate should be added to the list.
Justification: Since hiring managers need the full name of candidates, it is inconvenient for them to use an app that does not allow addition of names with
S/O
