Does severity of not in scope bugs matter? #812

The course website says

Note that response.NotInScope bugs earn a small amount of credit for the tester without any penalty for the dev team, unless there is an unusually high number of such bugs for a team.

My question is from a tester's perspective, does the severity of not in scope bugs matter? For example, does a high severity not in scope bug earn more credit than a low severity not in scope bug?

@SuhailLoya Yes, it matters. And yes, higher severity earns more marks even for response.NotInScope bugs.
