AI should remove associated props when removing functionality [#3551614]

Overview

I was working with AI to generate a navigation. It added whole bunch of settings for text color, sign up links, etc. I asked it to remove those features from the navigation because I needed something more basic. It removed these from code but it kept the props intact.

Proposed resolution

AI should remove associated props when removing functionality from components.

I attempted to reproduce this issue but was unable to do so.

Testing Steps:

Created a new component for the user registration form with the prompt: "Create a fancy component for user registration form."
Edited the component on the edit page with the prompt: "I don't want the phone number field." Result: The phone number field and its related prop were successfully removed.
Attempted a subsequent, broader edit on the same component with the prompt: "Edit this component to make it a simple and short form." Result: Several fields were removed, and the associated props were correctly removed as well.
