Funtion Loss / Gain

create a question

Questions are created independently and are added from the pool or a collection to a quiz

questions are created in a pool or in a quiz; a question can be shared from a quiz to a pool, but from a pool to a quiz, it is a duplicate.

Samigo questions are primarily associated by relationship to a quiz or a pool. Creation is more flexible and can be shared from either creation point.

edit a question

A question cannot be modified if it is on a quiz that has been taken

A quiz question shared to a pool shares modifications ; a pool question copied to a quiz does not share modifications

User should be cautious about the question origination point depending on whether they want a copy or the original

delete a question

Questions can be removed from a quiz, but cannot be deleted from the pool

Questions can be deleted from a quiz or a pool; once shared, the question must be deleted in both locations if complete removal is desired.

Deletion is a feature gained. Users should be aware of deletion specifics; program checks on every deletion request.
