When you call the humans who keep production safe “the bottleneck” you’re painting a very specific picture. The reviewer as the obstacle. The gate as friction. Something to route around. Cue in the Balrog scene from Lord of the Rings. That picture determines what you build. The tools to remove reviewers look different from tools to support them.

Some people are more receptive to these kinds of things than others. Not only in terms of open mind but also how they are able to apply it (or capable of applying it?).

I wish agreeing on intentions and improvements in terms of scoping and description would be met. Same with unnecessary, obvious issues showing up costing review time and iterations. I just don't get how these are issues - but they are - for or with some people.
