Team's Response

This is behaviour inherited from AB3.

It is also consistent with the edit event command.

Before changing the description:

After changing to the same description:

We essentially allow users to set whatever they want for that specific contact's fields even if they are the same as before.

Severity has been changed to low as attempted edits to the same field does not seem like it would occur very often.
