Don't feel too bad.  It is not about discord vs mailing list vs
github "reviews on the web".  It is about the end-product, the
commit log messages, what future developers will see in their "git
log" output.

Yup.  Please do that.

Communicating with reviewers and other contributors is not the
primary goal of the review process.  It is done to help us reach a
better end-product, the commit log messages that will help our future
developers and future selves.

Thanks.
