I don't think Callum suggests you to reduce to only these items on the
checklist, it should be considered the basic items to check. After all
they are called a MUST for a reason, e.g. supposedly *every review*
has checked the MUST items, and listing them in the review with a
check after them signals that you indeed are following the very basic
QA requirements.

And speaking of QA - QA is defined by fulfilling a given set of
specifications and the MUSTs in guidelines and review process
documents are providing these specifications.

Sure, these can be better streamlined and perhaps different checklists
could emerge for different classes of packages and make life easier.
