Good feedback for @mcroud.

No confusion was captured in usability testing but that doesn't mean it wasn't there.

I wonder if when given the correct styling the association with "public" and the field would be better understood:

I'm all for clarity however and invite more personal opinions on whether we need to elaborate more on 'public'?

I think if we fix the styling, it looks nice.
