I've found it helpful to lead with my explicitly labeled expectation I had that the code doesn't express and the reasoning I had for the expectation followed by a request for context. Sometimes better factoring wasn't top priority in the set of many concerns being solved for and sometimes a technique was not known. Oftentimes my expectation wasn't talking interactions in the code into account and the education I receive helps me better review the code or better understand the codebase. I mean, we could deal with the noise of conflict or we can more efficient solve the problem that motivates our effort in the first place.
