And that's in the cases when the undo is even possible. If there are
three unreviewed edits P1, P2, P3 in order, it may be impossible to
undo P2 without simply reverting to P1, which loses the content of P3.
That is a situation we do not want to encourage.

I view all this as a strong reason not to have an "reject" button.
