> you've got bigger problems than needing a better review system

I'll set aside the fallacious premise that everybody can stack their team with 10x engineers. Some of us actually work with interns and juniors.

That being said, your comment doesn't invalidate the need for a better review system. Software quality isn't defined by any one tool or process; the product is the end result of a chain of tools and processes...

I'm all for good review systems. But any review system that labels a large fraction of the submitted code as very deficient indicates that the solution is to act before review.

And I've coded with (and hired) interns and juniors, so it's not just a selection effect. In fact, the worst code I've seen came from a senior engineer, with strong opinions, who wrote the world's most blecherous code. We fired him, but not soon enough.
