Blowing away the form on submission is the worst sin if form design. Only blow it away if it was accepted!

I wonder if this is a deliberate (legal) submission reduction technique.

Probably closer to the PM didn't specify, the PO had a deadline, the Scrum Master wanted a lower estimate, the devs don't want to argue, and QA followed the acceptance criteria and didn't want to be seen as an impediment, especially since the devs had already surrendered.

I love the auto submit on auth codes
