: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]
Team chose [severity.VeryLow
]
Originally [severity.High
]
Reason for disagreement: After much thought, this bug might not stand at a "High" severity since it is a UG bug and perhaps, some users might use the app or this particular command without referring to the command summary part of the UG, hence not being affected. However, this still deserves to be of at least a "Medium" severity.
Firstly, this error is not merely a cosmetic issue, hence it should not be of "Very Low" severity. A person's INDEX and ID do not refer to the same thing and are likely to have different values. By following this command format given, the usage of the app is affected since the user might end up deleting the wrong person.
As mentioned in the original bug report, the delete command is not reversible. If a reader were to refer to the command summary part of the UG to use the app, which is likely due to the convenience it brings in learning an app with multiple complex commands, the user might end up deleting the wrong person. This deletes all the relevant information, including the ratings of the person. Since the app is supposed to allow users to view a person's rating history which is time-sensitive (only one rating can be given a day), it is not even possible to add all these information again, bringing major inconveniences to the user.
In the command summary section, the format given states INDEX which should not be the case, since the feature explanation earlier in the UG and the actual app uses the ID of the employee (which differs from the INDEX). User might end up deleting the wrong employee which cannot be undone and will cause major inconvenience.
