Well the author would say it was designed to look like it does so they would say not, personally I'd have liked the ability to have either but that'll be a mess to code I would imagine. I'll leave it with your very good judgement as to whether an issue should be raised!!

Re: how do devs keep the software reliable and safe?

The proper way is to write the unit tests before a single line of code is written, see https://bluefruit.co.uk/people/unit-tes ... ts-before/

What you need to consider when copy/cut from one file to another is how many references are there in the objects, for...
