The wording seems to imply that this would apply even for opinion driven disagreements. I would prefer a wording which implies something more concrete. Also, in a way, it seems like the post-commit review practice is in conflict with the wording here. As in, if concerns are raised post-commit, then the post-commit review practice requires the original author to address those concerns even post-commit. I would think a revert will only happen if the original author is not acting on/addressing the concerns. Even in such cases, the revert should be justified. An example justifiable reason can be that //progress// cannot be made with out a revert.
There are of course other obvious reasons to revert, but I am assuming that this discussion is not about those reasons.
