Rejection
"I appreciate you sending _______________ my way. Having reviewed your query and the first three chapters, I found the premise intriguing, but I don't feel I'm the right fit for this story and will have to pass. Please know this is not a craft issue but a gut feeling I rely on when asking for full manuscripts."

I appreciate the quick response time and I'm sure Bethany is wonderful, but I get tired of receiving these form rejections with gratuitous compliments. There is no way every premise she receives is intriguing, and I'm sure that, in some cases, she is, in fact, rejecting based on craft issues. I also get the "gut feeling" thing, but I hope decisions are made off of something like business and profit reasons.
I don't mean to pick on her. Many others send similar form rejections. I'd just rather hear a plain "no" in these cases. These types of ones really do make me feel like I'm shouting into the void and no one is actually paying attention to what I'm sending.
