I agree completely that it is the Theme developers' responsibility to ensure
that their Theme conforms to the review criteria. Once a Theme fails a
*required* review criterion, I consider it resolvable as "not-accepted". The
continuation of the review, however, is not as a courtesy to the Theme
developer, but rather as a courtesy to whomever will be reviewing the Theme
next.
