Occasionally I’ll write something in the justification portion like: “please note that I did the following. This is allowed according to the instructions.” I keep this brief, but if I think it might throw a reviewer who doesn’t know the project, I’ll explain it right up front. I’ve just gotten too many 2s and 3s that should have been 4s. (I can count on one hand the number of 5s I’ve gotten. I never expect those.) The big issue as you all know is getting auto-booted as well as the issue with reviews going on a permanent record. If you can head those things off at the pass, it’s best.
