I got this response , a very quick one but its not what i want to hear. This solution is generating more work and not streamlining. Really why is this even a thing? This is insane, no logic. Its a DRAFT invoice?! It's been too long PLEASE FIX .

Hope you're well & thanks for getting in touch along with the invite.
Thank you for letting us know your feedback on this.
Please note that once the draft invoice has been saved with an invoice number, Xero will then automatically switches to the next number in the sequence when creating the next invoice.
This is working as design, and it's currently not possible for Xero to pick up if the invoice number is edited or deleted and go back to the previous invoice number sequence.
If this is something that you'd like to see in Xero, we'd suggest visiting our Xero Product Ideas website, where you can view and support current ideas or create a new one to share your thoughts. We’re unable to provide a timeframe as to when any changes may be made, however it will be taken into consideration for future developments in Xero.
In the meantime, to avoid the problem with invoice number being missed, we'd suggest using temporary invoice numbers while creating an invoice, or entering a custom invoice number at the start of the invoices creation process. You may also want to audit your invoices on occasion to check if the sequence has been missed anywhere.
