Thank you for pointing out this mistake. Our team believes that it is our mistake for missing on explaining that Student Number cannot be changed in the UG description for Student Number, but there is the error message that validates the error and prevents data corruption. However, we do think that just like in real life, you would not see a case where a student changes his student number. (similar to our NRIC's). We think it should be a low severity in this case with the given explanation above.

Items for the Tester to Verify
:question: Issue duplicate status
Team chose to mark this issue as a duplicate of another issue (as explained in the Team's response above)
- [x] I disagree
Reason for disagreement: These 2 bugs are of separate issues. The 'Original' emphasises on how a students number should not be able to be edited. However, this bug is instead emphasising on the difference between the format shown in the error message of the GUI and the format as shown in the UG.
So, these are separate bugs on a similar topic, but not the same.
In the UG, it seems that I can edit the students number. However, in the error message displayed in the GUI, it seems that this is not allowed/ present. Hence, this may cause confusion to the user -> giving it a low severity.
