Find command seems redundant

[kaajinn]

The search command is able to find persons by names and display them in a list:

The find command also does the same thing, perhaps it is redundant:

Team's Response

This is for backwards compatibility for users who have been using the find command in previous versions. It would also not inconvenience users.

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.Rejected]

• [x] I disagree

Reason for disagreement: Thank you for your response!

• However, I believe that if the find command were indeed for backwards compatibility purposes, then it should have been marked as deprecated or something similar in the UG or app, which it has not.
• Thus, while it might not be an inconvenience for older users, it is still likely to confuse new users (which is most users within the context of the TP), since they would be wondering why there are two commands which seem to do the same thing (thus leading them to wonder if they misunderstood the UG instructions), and whether using one is recommended over the other. This is a minor inconvenience which description matches that of a 'Low' severity bug as described by the course website, thus I believe the severity rating should remain as 'Low'.
• Finally, if it was indeed the intention of the dev team to keep the find command for backwards compatibility, then I believe the bug type should be changed from 'FeatureFlaw' to 'DocumentationBug' due to lack of clear documentation.
