What is the purpose of $messageToReviewer?

Hello,
There is an email template that uses this variable (emails.reviewResponseOverdueAuto.body), but I don’t understand its meaning since apparently the text of the template would be enough. Does anyone know what it is for?

Dear {$recipientName},<br />
Just a gentle reminder of our request for your review of the submission, &quot;{$submissionTitle},&quot; for {$contextName}. We were hoping to have your response by {$responseDueDate}, and this email has been automatically generated and sent with the passing of that date.
<br />
{$messageToReviewer}<br />
<br />
Please log into the press web site to indicate whether you will undertake the review or not, as well as to access the submission and to record your review and recommendation.<br />
<br />
The review itself is due {$reviewDueDate}.<br />
<br />
Submission URL: {$reviewAssignmentUrl}<br />
<br />
Username: {$recipientUsername}<br />
<br />
Thank you for considering this request.<br />
<br />
<br />
Sincerely,<br />
{$contextSignature}<br />

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi @germanh,

You can see this variable being assigned in the reviewer form (from 3.3.0-x):

As you can see there, its value is the translation of the reviewer.step1.requestBoilerplate locale key. You can find that in lib/pkp/locale/en_US/reviewer.po:

Hi @asmecher, thank you very much!
Best,
Germán
