This discussion is about newcomers that know basically nothing of the project. When I say they're not there to learn, I mean their primary function as reviewers isn't to learn from what gets submitted. They can learn depending on what gets submitted, but if 90% of the time their ignorance doesn't permit them to properly determine if what's submitted to them is good or not, then what's the point of their review?

Reviewers not willing to learn anything during a code review is probably an easy tell for a crappy code review culture
