[D] ACL ARR 2026 Jan. author-editor confidential comment is positive-neutral. Whats this mean?

We submitted a manuscript to ACL ARR 2026 that received review scores of 4 / 2.5 / 2. The reviewers who gave 2.5 and 2 mainly asked for additional statistical tests. Importantly, all reviewers acknowledged that the study itself is novel. We conducted the requested statistical tests and presented the results in our rebuttal. However, these additions were not acknowledged by the reviewers. Therefore, we submitted a Review Issue Report.
