Same as many here, query rejected after two days but invited to Second Chance which like @CBSea said seems like part of the form rejection. Appreciate that chance even if it is part of the form and it's actually on their website.

Form rejection 6/16/25 (fairly long form response, includes second-chance inbox option)
I just want to clarify that the second-chance offer is part of the form rejection and does not seem to be specific to one's query, which I don't think was clear from previous author comments. I almost overlooked it as it mentioned towards the end of the 5th paragraph. However, I appreciate the agent's quick rejection and her willingness to respond to a high percentage of queries. If only all agents were so gracious!
