David debugged: Investigated why login screen framing confused 'login' with 'signup' on granular
David caught a UX problem where clicking 'Build your profile' took users to a login screen with copy that implied they already had an account.
David shared a screenshot of the granular sign-in screen and identified the framing error:
why does the build your profile button take the user to the login screen? and why does the login screen say they'll pick their username right after... that's not what login means... login implies they've already got an account and username
The issue was both a routing problem (a signup flow was presenting as a login flow) and a copy problem (the screen text implied prior account existence). David's diagnosis was precise: the two halves of the problem — where the button went and what the screen said — needed separate fixes.
