Stressing myself out over options

We are going to Alaska on koningsdam in August. Me, wifey, our kids (11,14).
So we have our excursions booked and that’s all fine. We are trying to figure out if it is worthwhile to go with Have it all or if it’s better to do it piecemeal.

HIA is $420 each so $1640
That includes $100 each in excursion credit, so it’s effectively $320 each so $1240.

Internet is going to be essential so that’s $133 each if we go piecemeal.
Wife wants to do a date night dinner so we would be doing 2 meal upgrades so that’s $120 since the kids would just hit chicken strips or pizza. So piecemeal we are up to $650 basically. So there’s a $590 difference.

Assuming the kids are allowed 3 sodas per day and wife has 3 (I don’t drink carbonation) that’s 9x7x$4? I’m figuring gratuity and tips etc so that’s $250. Iced coffee we will call $5.50x2x7 so that’s $77.

So as close as I can tell it’s $263 more expensive to do have it all assuming I just drink water. I’m still bitter about the coke freestyle machines going away.

I’m kind of thinking I should just mash the button and let $260 be fudgeable if I decide to have a martini with dinner or something. Am I figuring this out correctly?

Vague denial of review has me frustrated

I did a review of a pair of sunglasses about a week and a half ago. It seemed fine to me. I talked about the size, shape, the way they fit my wife, her feelings about them, how she looked cute in them and gave them a good review. I attached a picture of the glasses and then a picture of through the lenses so you could see the gradient. Got denied for not meeting community standards but there's no information about why. I thought initially it was because I specifically named my Maui Jim sunglasses which I said were more of a profound tinting (facts) and also the way the nose bridge was similar to wayfarers. So I edited those parts out and resubmitted it and I'm stuck in denial limbo with it. Any idea what on earth they find objectionable? It seems like it must be some kind of AI review gone wonky.
