Investigate New Activities With Only Disabled=true

[reptile18]

Opening up this issue for me to brain-dump anything related to the bug we were seeing yesterday that broke the site.

Basically we end up with an activity that looks like this in the admin activity table:

Data in firebase looks like this:

This is how activities are populated initially on creation:

Note: somehow, the highlighted lines are failing? But the third line is somehow getting through???

So one thing to consider is that before 2020.07.28, we didn't populate any of the other nodes in characteristics or score. It's possible that if an activity were to be created before that date, it would only have slug, name, and disabled. Then, someone could have gone in to deleted slug and name directly from the activity editor.

The problem with this theory is that it would still leave behind lots of nodes in the activity.

1. The slug and name fields would still exist, they would just be set to blank.
2. the lastEdited timestamp and by would still be populated with that user's information.

Therefore, it's unlikely that this is what happened.

It's also possible that after adding a new activity, someone went directly to the Firebase console to delete those fields, but this seems unlikely. Why would anyone do that?
