It's not a massive change, but it does change the meaning. The word "really" implies (to me) that it "kinda does answer the question, but not well enough for us". If it's a sort of answer, it's not supposed to be deleted; if it's not an answer don't suggest it sort of is.

For clarification, it feels like your commenting on answers that are No 2 or No 4, saying that they're No 5 but deleting them (correctly).

Worse, I worry that because this comment applies to 5, it will start to be used on 5, and then 5 will be (incorrectly) deleted.
