This highlights the issue of same names shouldn't be flagging duplicate persons as ''people with the same names are common''.
Rejected as we mentioned this as planned enhancement.
[The team marked this bug as a duplicate of the following bug]
Realodex should allow multiple clients with the same name
Since Realodex is meant for real estate professionals to manage clients, I believe that the constraint of only having 1 client with a name (mentioned in the UG) is a feature flaw. For example: a user could have 2 clients with the name Roy Lim (an arbitrary common name).
As such, this implementation decision would inconvenience users, and I believe it is a feature flaw.

[This is the team's response to the above 'original' bug]

: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]
I believe that 2 people can have the same name. I know that you specified this in your UG
But in real world context, I think its better to have email or phone number as the primary key to determine duplicates, as they are unique and deterministic !
