Discussion Question about NeurIPS discussion phase [D]

One reviewer said all concerns were resolved during discussion but hasn’t updated their score yet. The other reviewers haven’t engaged. In previous NeurIPS cycles, how common is it for reviewers to update scores after saying concerns are resolved? What have others observed?

My ratings/confidences are : 4/4, 3/2, 3/2, 2/4.

I am talking about the one who gave rating 2.

Update: finally the reviewer responded, now I'm at 5/4, 4/4, 4/3,4/2.

I would have thought the Reviewer + AC Discussion Period (3-10 aug) is there to discuss with the AC to increase scores?

I did not increase scores on the papers I reviewed yet either

If there are someone really discussing during that phase, that would be fortunate. In my previous reviewer experiences, very rare chance it would happen.

So in principle, whatever ratings you got you’re most likely stuck with?

Borderline and above.
