When you spend HOURS crafting the perfect form with crystal-clear labels, helpful placeholders, and validation messages that even your grandma could understand... and then the user treats your "Confirm Email" field like it's a philosophical question about existence itself.
Like bestie, when we ask you to "confirm your email," we're looking for you to TYPE THE EMAIL AGAIN, not write a heartfelt affirmation that yes, you do indeed possess an email address. This is the equivalent of a recipe saying "add salt" and someone responding "Yes, salt exists in my kitchen."
Developers really out here thinking users will follow basic instructions while users are operating on a completely different wavelength. We're speaking English, they're speaking... whatever dimension this response came from. And this is why we can't have nice things—or simple forms without 47 validation checks.
