Inconsistency in command behavior

[nus-pe-bot]

For regular fields like phone number, email and address, they are added with an ap command, edited with an ep command, and deleted with dp. However, for remark (which functions similar to tag), a separate remark command is used, and the adding, editing and deleting of that remark is all done within that single command. It might be confusing to users why this is so.

Team's Response

firstly, this will not be confusing as this behaviour was clearly explained in the user guide to avoid confusion.

secondly, we decided to have a separate command for editing remarks instead of using ep, as remarks do not belong in the same class of atttributes as phone numbers, emails and addresses. not only can remarks be exceptionally long while phone numbers etc cant, they are also not intrinsic to a patient. patients will have phone numbers etc as their attributes but remarks are not compulsory. due to these reasons, we do not treat remarks the same way as other attributes of a patient, hence the rationale behind using a separate command.
