edit_ev is a command that takes in optional fields, so a user that "forgets to input a certain field" is equivalent to a user who did not intend to enter that field at all. With regards to your specific example, there is no 'hardcoded dates' - you tried editing an event with an existing start date of '16/09/2019' to have an end date of '22/02/2019', which violates our constraints.
In any case, this is not a severity high problem, which is "A flaw that affects most users and causes major problems for users. i.e., makes the product almost unusable for most users.", unless there is justification with regards to what exactly are the 'major problems' the user faces and how it makes the product unusable.
Bug rejected.

Error message should tell users to key in the date field that they forgot instead of the current confusing message with hardcoded dates. Severity is marked as high because forgetting to input start or end dates is a very common mistake.
