You can pose all the questions you'd like during the revision process; the government ain't obligated to answer them to any great extent.

Consider that, legally, the RFP doesn't have to disclose the relative weights to be used for the evaluation criteria just an ordering of

criteria from most-to-least important. So if you have something like this (very simple example) for the cost criteria evaluation:

1. past cost performance

2. current cost performance

3. projected cost performance (i.e. new cost reductions due to technology)

You can have any weightings from 97-2-1 to 35-33-32 and many points in-between.

Whatever transpired in discussions during the revision process could drastically shape an offeror's impression

of the relative weightings and inform the final cost proposal e.g. cost of data rights/tooling for your cosmic manufacturing technology.
