Needs clarification regarding abolishment and banning
The page begins with:

''Capital punishment was abolished in Costa Rica in 1877. Costa Rica, one of many countries, banned capital punishment in 1882.''

Please clarify the difference between what happened in 1877 and what happened in 1882. What is the difference between capital punishment being abolished and capital punishment being banned? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:2F09:3609:EE00:F105:444F:3A7D:F3B2 (talk) 18:00, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
