aII got a suggested edit that seemed really weird:

https://askubuntu.com/review/suggested-edits/232686

I couldn't quite figure out what the edit was trying to achieve, and toggling between "markdown" and "rendered output" didn't make it more clear so I looked at the original question which was kind of thin but actually had a good answer, and wanted to see the suggested edit in place. I hit "improve" -- I already suspected I was going to cancel the improvement and reject the edit, but I wanted to at least see if looking at the whole thing made any sense of what the edit was trying to achieve.

Instead, I got a message asserting that I'd failed a test. Now the edit is marked Review audit failed 6 mins ago:

I'm frustrated because I feel like I have this "fail" stamp now and I actually just wanted to see the edit in the context of the full post.

Am I penalized for this in some way? It seems unfair, since I didn't accept the edit.

Am I penalized for trying to "improve" a test edit?
