Clarify Simulated Group (#1200)
<!-- Ticket number or summary of work --> ## Summary Adds a reference to more clearly define what the Simulated Group is and means to editing this component in Makeswift. I know this makes things slightly redundant because you are told to select a Simulated Group before adding content for Group A just below this. However, both myself and a merchant's developer missed this the first time through and were very confused as to why we had Targeted Groups but content didn't appear for them, so I think a further definition alongside Simulated Group's definition is warranted. It's not really clear that this is a requirement to create the desired content, in my opinion, without that. ## What changed? <!-- Provide a bulleted list in the present tense --> * A note is added below the Simulated Group definition that clearly defines why it must be selected. ## Release notes draft <!-- Provide an entry for the release notes using simple, conversational language. Don't be too technical. Explain how the change will benefit the merchant and link to the feature. Examples: * The newly-released [X feature] is now available to use. Now, you’ll be able to [perform Y action]. * We're happy to announce [X feature], which can help you [perform Y action]. * [X feature] helps you to create [Y response] using the [Z query parameter]. Now, you can deliver [ex, localized shopping experiences for your customers]. * Fixed a bug in the [X endpoint]. Now the [Y field] will appear when you click [Z option]. --> * N/A ## Anything else? <!-- Add related PRs, salient notes, additional ticket numbers, etc. --> N/A
