Would you like to follow official patch process documentation?

I have got the impression that he indicates another deviation from
a well-known requirement. I am curious under which circumstances
such a patch review concern will be taken into account finally.

I find such feedback surprising and interesting.
I hope that we can reduce understanding difficulties together.


> I have no idea what "collateral evolution" means

This term expresses the situation that a single change can trigger
further changes.

Examples for programmers:
A)
* You add an argument to an used function.
* How many function calls will need related adjustments?

B)
* Some function calls can fail.
* How do you think about to complete error detection and the
  corresponding exception handling?


> and yet you use it in almost every email.

You exaggerate here.


> Why can't you use the same terminology the rest of us use?

I got also used to some wording approaches.
Which terminology variation do you prefer?
