Re-exposure step during reversal processing

I've only processed Ektachrome using reversal exposure (E1 and E3) I used a photoflood back in the day. A few years ago I experimented with Fujichrome and an old, but healthy E1 kit. I used a LED flashlight and got good results.

I don't think it's too sensitive to too much light, within reason.

To keep it short, I see such a huge variety of techniques, and conflicting instructions.

For Fomapan r100, their kit says to leave the film on its reels, and re-expose through water for 30 seconds from a meter away
For the Ilford Reversal process, it says to take the film off the reel, and rexpose for 30-60 seconds from 46cm away
The scala kit says to do so for two minutes through water, 45-80cm away.

The Ilford instructions also say that you can safely provide two-four times exposure and still get good results, and that slight fogging is the issues for overexposure.

Is the re-exposure step so flexible that all of these techniques will produce good results, no matter how you do it?
And does anyone have examples of a slide that is too exposed during the re-exposure?
