Thank you for the suggestion tester! However, we designed specialisations based on real-world context. It is very rare for established doctors in a hospital to gain additional specialisations throughout their tenure, as such we do not expect further modifications of their specialisations after it has been set for a while. Additionally, allowing for special characters like brackets does make the command harder to parse, which is a valid reason for the lack of such flexibility as suggested under Guidelines for the dev team to follow when triaging PE bugs in PE Preparation, Restrictions:
As changes or additions to specialisations are not anticipated once a doctor has been on the contact list for a considerable period, we do not expect any regular inconvenience for users.
Items for the Tester to Verify
:question: Issue response
Team chose [response.Rejected]
- [x] I disagree
Reason for disagreement: The team did not answer my issue of having to
type out the whole list again which can be error prone and inconvenient
Even in the screenshot the team provided it says that inconvenience can be considered a FeatureFlaw bug:
Also, the team agreed that there exists a possibility for such cases to occur given that they mentioned
It is very rare for established doctors in a hospital to gain additional specialisations
but chose to reject the bug report which is meant only for clearly incorrect bug reports.
Lets say I have a doctor that specialize in heart and brain but I want to add a specialization of leg. To do so I will need to do
spec 4 heart, brain, legbut if the doctor has a long list of specializations I would need to type out the whole list again which can be error prone and inconvenient. Also, as there are many parts of an area of specialization, it is also inconvenient that brackets () are not allowed. It would be nice to have for examplespec 4 brain(front), brain(back)
