Yet another forum deficiency

Can any of the forum developers see the discrepancy above?

Further to that, there are some posts kn the thread that are timestamped later than either of the above dates. So, after only a couple of days back in the forum, I can see that I did not ignore the forum for long enough! So my next hiatus, likely very soon, might need to be measured in years rather than months I think. Frankly, I have absolutely no confidence in the developers’ ability to resolve the countless issues plaguing this forum.

    In Q&A, respondents will post advice as an answer to your question.
    The questioner will only post an answer if they have solved the problem themselves.
    The bottom part of the above screenshot (Apr 8,2025, 7:04PM) was posted as an answer by mistake.
    And several comments were posted in response to that answer.
    When a moderator converts your answer into a comment, it is normal for the posting time to change, as in the screen capture.
    Now, more comments have been posted so the status has changed.

    Additional Information:
    I believe that the reported issue would not occur if everyone understood the difference between answers and comments.

    Q&Aでは、あなたの質問に対して回答者がアドバイスを回答として投稿します。
    質問者が回答として投稿するのは自己解決した場合だけです。
    上記キャプチャーの下側部分(Apr 8,2025, 7:04PM)は、間違って回答として投稿しましたよね。
    そして、その回答に対して数件のコメントが投稿されましたよね。
    モデレータがあなたの回答をコメントに変換すると画面キャプチャーの様に投稿時間が変化するのは正常な動作です。
    現在は、更にコメントが投稿されたので状態は変わりましたね。

    補足:
    誰もが回答とコメントの違いを理解していれば申告された事象は発生しないと思います
