I feel your pain. I was hit with reviewing up to six comments, total waste. I emailed the POC at the link below, saying the service is shoddy, waste of time. 

Like you, I do not have the time to waste reviewing comments. Hold my mouse on one point, click "Yes" over and over, bypassing reading. Told the SA POC this is what everyone does, what good is the design? Now it is down to three reviews per comment. Still a waste, a little better.
