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.
