You need to know the target language before deciding it is OK and sufficient to just remove ̉¿? from around a sentence to make it from a question to a statement of a fact. You may know enough, but reviewers may not be. In addition, it would allow bypassing the language teams, which is the most serious problem I see in such an attitude.
