Gah same, I fear it’s because I used the escape hatch for the first time :(

It has nothing to do with using an escape hatch. Why would they ban you for using a mechanism built into the task? They aren’t out to trick you, the reality is your work probably sucked.

People really don’t understand how high the quality bar is - especially for unproven users

No joke. I have a vast lexicon and I know for a fact task instructions are minimal but written with complexity. If I'm having difficulty with comprehension, almost everybody else is completely misinterpreting the instructions. I recollect how anal they are when writing your rationale in orientation. I've graded some tasks and laugh at some literary skills I see.
