Description
Proposal
Currently, admit and sorry are synonyms.
If we deprecate the one that is less used, which is admit, beginners have one less thing to worry about what it does and if there's subtle differences to sorry.
Community Feedback
Deprecation suggested in this discussion after a beginner asked if there is a difference.
