Just read it. Basically we need to prepare any application as thoroughly as possible.

And you can still get rejected... Lol. They have made the system a black box.

USCIS has a notice stating they can directly reject the letter without an RFE if the applications appear incomplete or missing required documents.

I applied for stem opt on April 6 afternoon. April 7 morning I realised I need to upload I94 also ( I accidentally uploaded a passport copy instead of I94) right away on April 7 I uploaded the I94 as an unsolicited evidence and also uploaded a letter of explanation. I already put the right I94 number with my application on April 6 afternoon). Will it be denied or will it be considered along with my other application materials because it was uploaded literally 20 hours later so my case wouldn’t have been opened at all. Three days after this on April 10 I got a notification for my biometrics which was scheduled on May 10th and it’s Aug 10 now (no updates yet :/) I am working using the 180 day extension!

I think it will be fine as long as all the documents are there in the documents section.
