I entered a Google-Blacklist screenwriting contest last year to promote non-stereotyped tech characters in media.* I wrote a pilot about a couple raising a family while running a makerspace. The reviewer didn't like it because it was too tech-focused and most people wouldn't get it. Then they got really hung up on the fact that my couple was mixed race, and said that it was not only wrong of me not to draw more attention to this fact, but that the whole first episode should have focused entirely on it. The review was so obtuse, and knew so little about my audience and the subject matter it was astonishing. It reminded me of an English teacher friend who did away with peer reviews, arguing that having other students who are as inexperienced as you critiquing your work will only hurt you. *I'm fairly certain now it was either a scam or another one of those Google side-projects they fund and forget about because winners were never announced.
