When I am not interested in a topic, or there are other reviewers who are more qualified and are interested in the topic than I am, the protocol to require the final "Here is a verbatim final resend, the only difference from what was reviewed is the reviewed-by's from the reviewers." will let me completely ignore the topic while it is being discussed (as long as I trust the judgment of these reviewers).

Otherwise I'd need to keep track of the progress of the discussion on each and every topic, which is often impossible.
