I think the process of writing them up might make them worse (i.e. longer than they need to be)

Go further. Phrased this way, it _IS_ a status attack.
To be clear, I don't every think anyone should phrase it that way (and I think usually people don't). But it's still just not hard to interpret through that lens even if you're moderately careful in phrasing.
I think a lot of harm is done by framing it as a linear set of stages, rather than a mesh of abstractions, and recognizing that object-level results are ALWAYS relevant, and the stages are mostly ways to take more factors into account for the models and beliefs that lead to results.
Yeah, I basically agree with this.
My guess is to frame things in terms of skills to learn or particular attributes to acquire.
