i think the point is that you only have to write "edit:" when you actually changed something in your message

if there's no "edit" it's often safe to assume nothing really changed, it's just a typo or a rewording

if the whole text completely was changed there'd be an "edit"

If you don't put the "Edit:" you will never know if it was a typo or a whole text.
