And that would be great, if it wern't for the fact that I also have to review the reviewers review. So even for the "low hanging fruit", I need to double-check everything it does.

Which kinda eliminates the time savings.

That is not my perspective. I don't review every review, instead use a review agent with fresh context to find as much as possible. After all automated reviews pass, I then review the final output diff. It saves a lot of back and forth, especially with a tight prompt for the review agent. Give the reviewer specific things to check and you won't see nearly as much garbage in your review.
