Hi Yosry,
Thank you for letting me know. To be completely honest, I think
I have been misusing the word in that case. You are correct,
the goal was to try and not change any functionality from the
user perspective, so I think removing is a better word, as you
suggested. I will make this change in the v3!
Have a great day,
Joshua
