Share on XShare on LinkedInReview comments are written for an audience: the author, the team, and whoever reads the thread later. That is why "nit:" can precede a paragraph, "can we" means "you will", and "LGTM" sometimes arrives eleven seconds after a 900-line pull request opens.
The translator recognizes about two dozen review phrases and decodes each one, then scores the whole comment from sincere to a declaration of war written in Markdown. In reverse mode it takes blunt thoughts such as "this is wrong" or "did you even test this" and rewrites them in the careful register reviews are expected to use. It is satire, though the polite rewrites are usable.
