Why each option
When an Incident form is saved, the Additional Comments field's content is appended to the Activity Stream (Journal fields) and the input field itself is cleared.
Work Notes text is recorded to the Activity Stream, but 'Activity Log' is not the correct term; it's typically referred to as the Activity Stream or Journal.
Work Notes are appended to the activity stream as journal entries, not overwritten, maintaining a historical log of all work performed.
The 'Priority' field is calculated based on 'Impact' and 'Urgency' values, not by adding them, and 'Impact' itself is usually a direct input rather than a calculation of other fields.
When an Incident form is saved, text entered into the 'Additional Comments (Customer Visible)' field is moved to the activity stream (journal entries) and the input box for 'Additional Comments' is cleared, preparing it for new input without retaining previous entries.
