"Working respectfully with other participants" does not just

I agree with you, though it requires us to *seriously* review
their proposals even if the review recognizes some proposals
are poor. Then, we are required to state "poor", if we must
respect "their contribution".
So, what is required for the respect is serious review, not
always resulting positively.
Anyway, can we agree that we can disrespect poor results, after
the work has finished.
