Unexpected flag allowed addition of task into task list

[shaunngoh]

Expected to use /every flag for the recurrence basis, however, /by is accepted as well

Team's Response

Thank you for reporting this. As /by is a valid, repeat takes it as an alternative tag for the recurring command too. This is something we forgot to document in the user guide, and could be a feature the team could be adding in the future versions.

Besides, the team will be reducing the severity to be LOW, as the program still works normally, and the new repeat task is added correctly. Since /by is an invalid tag in repeat, it can be assumed that the user wants to loop it every 123213 (which is a short-cut instead of writing "every").
