Hi Maha,
I can comment on one question you ask ” Why is it difficult to BCC reviewers on decisions the way it’s done sometimes for journals?” I can’t generalise but in my experience, the decision process is more complex for conferences than for journals where it is largely an editorial decision, informed by reviews. Print journals may need to take account of annual page limits but the contraints of time are often tight for conferences, and it’s much easier to make space for a poster than, say, for a one hour workshop. So a team of people may be involved at looking at reviews and submissions and deciding what fits and where.
Like you, as a reviewer, I enjoy seeing other reviews, and I am shocked at the brevity and flippancy of some.
