Actually, if what you are looking for is "to the point" reviews, then you should agree with the article's advices. To name a few:
- Pointing to a common reference instead of simply stating your opinion in a review will get the improvement you want done faster
- Writing a single comment for a repeated error is faster to do for the reviewer
- Explicit communication instead of emojis and sarcastic comments will bypass the need for further explanation, which will make the whole process faster
Finally, you seem to take issue with only a few of the author's points ('some of these rules go beyond a reasonable "don't be an asshole" line'), could you explain which ones and why? I am interested to know what exactly makes the process too taxing for you.
