Why is this a problem?

krispayne commented 4 years ago

Not sure problem is the exact word I would use, but more just a usability thing. For example, if I have one of my coworkers go through it, they may not actually read and just accept whatever the default package is, which in the above instance would be wildly incorrect.

grahampugh commented 4 years ago

The DEFAULT is wrong for Zoom? Which one is correct then?

krispayne commented 4 years ago

Oh man, you know what, you're right, the default is correct.

We can probably close this. I've been using it for several years without any issue haha

grahampugh commented 4 years ago

Happy to oblige :)
