Problem
The current implementation of flagging exercises in the DOJO design doc allows users to flag an exercise multiple times, resulting in a poor user experience. When a user attempts to flag an already flagged exercise, the backend returns an error and the frontend displays "Oops, something went wrong" without providing a clear reason for the error.

While this change addresses the immediate issue of poor user experience, it does not address the underlying problem of not allowing multiple flags per exercise. It would be better to allow multiple flags per exercise and provide an easy-to-use interface for reviewing and managing exercises with multiple-flags in the admin panel.
