Is it a valid design for user-triggered changes to override default reward settings without a reset option?

I am seeking insight from SQL Server professionals regarding a backend design scenario that may raise concerns from a user-experience perspective.

In the Microsoft Rewards system, users can select auto-redemption settings for exchanging earned points with external rewards (e.g., PayPay). However, if a user accidentally selects a higher-tier redemption setting (e.g., 10920 points → 1200 PayPay) instead of the default (5460 points → 600 PayPay), the original option seems to disappear from the dashboard. There seems to be no clear way to restore the default.

Assuming that such redemption offers and thresholds are stored and managed via SQL Server or a comparable RDBMS backend:

  • The first issue is that the user input can override the default reward threshold, and furthermore, if there is no reset function in such cases, I believe it is not appropriate from an operational design perspective. What do you think?
  • From the perspective of data integrity and user safety, such systems require safeguards to prevent irreversible changes caused by careless input, and furthermore, a means to reset to default values is essential, isn't it?

This is not a complaint, but a sincere architectural question intended to understand best practices and whether such a model represents a fragile or avoidable design pattern.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
