The tl;dr seems to be that Mozilla's static analysis tools have some significant issues, their review team's apparent understanding of policies seems at odds with the understanding of at least some important Mozilla devs, and the review process itself lacks a mechanism for dialogue with the reviewers.
Unfortunate for a platform that's already launched.

And as mentioned elsewhere in this thread, reviewers also hang out in #app-reviewers on irc.mozilla.org. We're really trying to make it as easy as possible to reach a real person!
