Editable Input still saves on 'Esc'

The editable inputs (in this case below, 'Editable Number') offer two options when in the editing mode: Enter to save, Esc to cancel:

But it saves in either case, so what's the point of having both options -- and how can I get an actual 'Esc to cancel' option?

The expected behavior would be that if I change the value, but then hit Esc, it would revert to the previous value and NOT save the new value.

Currently enter, escape, or any type of blurring will save the new value. That makes 'Esc to cancel' pretty misleading.

Any solutions for this?

Hey @shawnhoffman, thanks for pointing this out. That wording is definitely unclear. Since the state is updated in either case, I'll raise this with our Eng team. Until then, I'd suggest changing the helper text to say "Enter or Esc to save."

Thanks, @AbbeyHernandez

Indeed, changing the text is what I've done for now but it would be nice to have a way to Esc without saving. Appreciate you raising it with the eng team.
