Why do you map them as woody weeds when Privet is listed on Field Maps?

good question https://canberra.naturemapr.org/users/8081. The main weed target was A floribunda which is not on the drop down weed list of Field Maps and which I therefore mapped as Woody Weed, see Acacia floribunda (White Sally Wattle, Gossamer Wattle)
Concurrently I removed some privets Nandinas and Ivy in the same area. I have problems getting accuracy to 10m or below with my old G3 / G4 mobile since G3 was discontinued; it takes ages i.e. 5 minutes or more for my mobile to get the accuracy close to 10m; I therefore use the point tool when the accuracy gets close to 10m (usually around 12m) and I have a reasonable large area to map where accuracy slightly over 10m doesn't matter. But I don't repeat that procedure for every woody weed species in the mapped area - it just takes too long - so, sometimes I just take a quick photo for a record.
