I'd rather have it be known why I've edited my message, rather than leave people to question if I'd edited the body or meaning of my message. In my case it's an accredited science lab thing, but I imagine lots of corporate and legal professionals do the same.
I also imagine things. Are you supporting your own position through things your brain created while staring out the window?
Supporting your position through things created in your brain is called "explaining yourself", or more specifically "explaining the rationale behind your position".
Did you think you were being clever?
