Reflection: Coming up with a list of 20 bugs was definitely challenging. It was easy to think of the first major problems/annoyances that popped into my head, but it became difficult after identifying those main problems. After that, it was hard to point out specific bugs I had I think because I experience them so much and have become used to them. Overall, it pressed me to really think hard about things I might not have viewed as problems before but definitely could be from another perspective.
