Is there a warning (red !) for death before birth dates?
Johann Georg Sutter 9N11-XJL, when I found him, had been "born in 1834" and "died in 1827." A physical impossibility. This was a result of a few people adding many sources without doing the math.
Why was there no warning?

The warning being absent is usually down to the display date not being the same as the one inputted. Others will probably have better suggestions regarding the specific ways this can happen. In this case, I notice from the change log that an 1834 baptism date was added on 17 September 2022. This seems to have found its way into the birth field in vitals as the display date, whilst 1813 was "retained" as the standardised date - hence no red flag.
Not explaining this too well, am I? Perhaps @Gordon Collett can do a better job! But, in short, one should always get that red flag if the dates have been standardised "properly" - albeit incorrectly (with birth date after death date).

I just noticed that @MaileLoveland makes helpful comments on a similar issue, at https://community.familysearch.org/en/discussion/137857/familysearch-software-problem#latest
