Darran Lofthouse commented on ELY-1449:
---------------------------------------

I think issues like this may be going a step too far unless some verification has been undertaken to confirm this is an actual issue before raising the bug report.

There are PRs in the queue at the moment with various refactorings around the Digest mechanism anyway, ideally as an engineer works on the code their IDE should already be set up to flag situations like this one and if they are working in the code correct it - but I would not really expect someone to proactively divert time to this.  Add to that a trivial / unscheduled issue is not like to get attention anyway so we end up with redundant issues that in the end will just need to be cleaned up rather than being actioned.
