etter than saying "I have not read the document but I support publication" I do not see all that much help in having someone list reasons they support publication unless there is some particularly wonderful feature or the prose is particularly clear the reverse is not the case, I think there is real value in someone saying in detail why the do not support publication of a document
Content free statements of support turn the public query into a pure popularity contest and/or a game of personal authority. Is your support more important than Pete's non-support? Absent substance in the statements, we've no idea how to evaluate any disparity.
Statements that include substance about the nature and technical adequacies are a form of showing one's work on an exam: they demonstrate the substance that is the basis the support, not just the fact of it.
