これは不具合の報告というよりもフィードバックですが、構わないでしょうね。素晴らしい観点に思えます。この拒否理由の名称を変更することで、いつ・どのように用いられるかも明確にもなるでしょうね。ウエイフェアラー・チームへ申し伝え、変更が可能かどうか確認してみましょう。

Renaming Visually Unique
No a bug in that it is an error in the code or how it is implemented, but it is a bug in that people systemically misunderstand what "Visually Unique" means in the context of reviewing. This mainly comes down to people's understanding of the work "unique". Below are various dictionary definitions of unique.From Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary:
- Being the only one of its kind
- Very special or unusual
- Belonging to or connected with one particular person, place or thing
From Merriam-Webster Dictionary:
- Being the only one
- Being without a like or equal
- Distinctively characteristic
- Able to be distinguished from all others of its class or type
- Unusual
From Cambridge Dictionary:
- Being the only existing one of its type or, more generally, unusual, or special in some way
You should begin to see the pattern. However, this is how Niantic has defined "unique".
- Something that is not common
The contrast between how unique is defined and understood by people and how Niantic uses the term is rather stark. This is one of the biggest reasons why reviewers are incorrectly assessing this category because they are applying the meaning as described by the most widely accepted dictionaries. However, let's look at how these same dictionaries define another word that more closely matches Niantic's definition of unique.
From Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary:
- Having a quality or characteristic that makes something different and easily noticed
From Merriam-Webster Dictionary:
- Marking as separate or different : serving to distinguish
- Having or giving an uncommon and appealing quality : having or giving style or distinction
From Cambridge Dictionary:
- Something that is distinctive is easy to recognize because it is different from other things
The word defined above is "distinctive". As you can see from the definitions, it is are far closer to Niantic's intended meaning of the rating category. Thus I ask that the rating category of "Visually Unique" be renamed to "Visually Distinctive" to keep in line with common understanding of the terms and Niantic's own description of the rating category. This should help reduce the amount of confusion and reviewer errors when assessing this rating.

Renaming Visually Unique
This is more feedback than bug report but I'll allow it
I think you have a great point here, renaming this rejection reason will also hopefully make it more clear when/how to use it. Let me bring this up with the Wayfarer team to see if this is possible.
