"100% technically driven". That's a silly statement. You aren't dealing with objective facts here, it's opinions. Tastes. There are always egos, personality, and differing points of view. I think a better view is art/music. When you go to art school, you learn how to take criticism well. You learn to make it about the work, and view it as a chance to learn, and get better. I try to nurture this attitude for reviews at my company.

Opinions, tastes are essentially bike-shedding in programming and reviewers shouldn't be asking it to be fixed, unless there is a rulebook or automated tool for the bike-shedding. Otherwise programming decisions should always be fact/experiment driven not opinions.
