A reviewer can misunderstand the intention while accurately noticing the result.

REFLECTION
Meaning to do something well is invisible to whoever meets the result. A reader, a listener or a user only ever sees what arrived, so they can be entirely wrong about your purpose and entirely right about its effect. The urge is to correct the misreading and dismiss the whole response along with it. The part about what actually happened is the useful half.
When feedback misses your intention, separate that from what they observed. Fix what landed wrongly, and treat your need to explain as evidence about the work.
