No need to be tentative. :-) Just write as:

I've done a full review of this patch set and provided comments in the
individual patches. Some of my comments reference the Sashiko AI
comments, but there are still some Sashiko AI comments to consider
that I haven't referenced.

FWIW, the Sashiko AI comments are quite good -- it found some things
here that I missed on my own, and in my earlier reviews of the original VTL
code. :-(
