Inconsistent error language in phone number parameter constraint #8

Description

@trpmy

While I understand that the app textbox can't fit the UG's constraint list, a very crucial detail is missing: that + are also allowed. This, along with other omissions like "no spaces between number", is very misleading, especially considering it wouldn't have taken that long to type that inside, and that the text wouldn't have taken up that much space.

I chose medium because +codes are very common, phone numbers are very common, and ability to add + is very useful for phone numbers, the ommission of which in the very app is highly questionable

Putting this as feature flaw as per course website. Additionally, this is WORSE than simply being of lesser specificity. The fact that it says "Only numbers" in the app box is not just less specific, it is contradictory. This severity is why I put it as medium.
