I'm challenging my team to actually think about that process, why it's in place, how it's helping (or actively hurting!) us. Comparing ourselves to companies that have regulatory requirements (spoiler: we don't and likely won't for a long, long time) just furthers my point that no one really thinks about these things. They just cargo cult how everyone else does it.

You can challenge them without actually violating established process. I wasn't comparing you to companies that have regulatory requirements, I was merely saying that all of the above will factor in much, much stronger still in a regulated industry.
But not being in a regulated industry doesn't mean there isn't a very good reason to have a code review in your process, assuming it is used effectively and not for nitpicking.
Not having a code review step is usually a bad idea, unless everybody on your team is of absolutely amazing quality and they never make silly mistakes. I've yet to come across a team like that, but maybe you are the exception to the rule.
