one of the more useful things I realized at some point for how to be a good code reviewer is "that's not how I'd do it" is not constructive feedback and is not a valid reason to request a change, and if you can't think of an actual good reason to block a review, you can save a lot of time for everybody involved by just chilling out about it

side thought: I don't get people who are adverse to reading code written by other people. how on earth did you people learn to program?
@aeva unironically it's must faster to learn programming by just writing your own thing and then inspecting via debugger when you have a misunderstanding. Other people's code _can_ be joyful to read, and it's nice when you actually do see some well-written code, but most code is OO spaghetti that just makes you more confused than when you started.
@NickDrisc0ll I guess there's a lot of people who know how to write but can't read so why not
@aeva well debugging is impossible without reading, so not really.
