But your behavior does not tell the recipient that. If they were being treated as general Last Call comments, it would be up to the shepherd and sponsoring AD to resolve them, not up to the General Area AD. That leaves one set of people on the hook for making sure they are done and deciding when they are, and it is the same set no matter how the Last Call comment is generated. Your mechanism privileges one set over others (in that they are more likely to be held as blocking until resolved), is likely to be slower (since yet another busy person must be informed that something is resolved, and may miss it when it was), and does not encourage things to push earlier than Last Call (which is the opportunity I think you're missing).
