Suggest edits in documents

This document needs tracked-suggestion edits rather than blunt changes. Turn on Suggesting mode, replace the executive summary paragraph with the tightened version I drafted, leaving the original text visible as a suggestion, and add a short comment explaining why this phrasing reduces ambiguity for procurement. Tag Owen as the reviewer and set a three-day review deadline.

Before I submit suggested edits, make them easy to accept: keep each suggestion atomic and explain the reason in one line, surface the net word-count change, and flag any sentence where meaning could shift legally. Identify suggestions likely to trigger pushback from Owen and propose an alternative phrasing he can accept without multiple rewrites.

I turned edits into suggestions and Owen accepted half but rejected a key clause I thought clarified liability. I don't know whether he objects to tone, legal exposure, or losing flexibility. Should I add a comment explaining my rationale, propose a compromise sentence, or schedule a quick screen share to walk him through the changes? Which will get agreement fastest?

Across many documents our team uses suggesting mode but final authors frequently ignore the suggestions, causing rework. Where are suggestions failing — visibility, timing, or trust in the suggester — and what one practice should we adopt to make suggested edits accepted first time?
