Suggestions can be equal to typed text

[oiiiiiiii]

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes

• VS Code Version: 1.73.1
• OS Version: Fedora

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Set editor.quickSuggestions to true for all in settings.json:

"editor.quickSuggestions": {
    "other": true,
    "comments": true,
    "strings": true
  },

2. In any text file, type a word more than once (for example test test)

When I fully typed the word twice, I get a suggestion that only shows exactly what I have typed already. So the only thing the suggestion does is that when I hit enter, I don't get into a new line but nothing happens (because it triggers the suggestion that makes no difference). I think suggestions shouldn't pop up, if they are'nt different to the already typed text:

When I fully typed the word twice, I get a suggestion that only shows exactly what I have typed already.

That's because when starting to type the test suggestion is computed. You than narrow down on it and therefore have the same suggestion to what's current typed. The test suggestion isn't computed when hitting ctrl+space after test.

So the only thing the suggestion does is that when I hit enter, I don't get into a new line but nothing happens (because it triggers the suggestion that makes no difference)

You can use the editor.acceptSuggestionOnEnter setting for that

@jrieken why was this issue closed? I mean, yes, you explained why this behavior occurs, but I still think that this is something that should be fixed. I can't be the only person that dislikes this behavior in VSCode. I want to use enter to accept suggestions, I just don't believe it should count as a suggestion, when it is equal to what's already typed. This behavior is especially annoying when typing text like LaTeX or markdown.

Should I make a feature request out of it instead of a bug report, and it got closed because it's not considered a bug? I just really understand how this is closed as completed.
