i guess there's also a difference in the places you work at. the places i work at expect trunk to always be clean, and ready for production (continuous delivery). if you work someplace with a slower release cycle, then getting a not perfect change in may be more acceptable. there's also responsibility, which is traced during incidents back to author and reviewers. i won't approve until i'm confident in the code, and that will mean the author needs to answer questions etc.
