I just wanted to mention that we're experiencing something similar moving to v201806 and trying to test that things are working. We have tests where some should be exemptable ad text and some not exemptable, to make sure we handle things correctly. At this point, the only thing we can get to trigger any kind of policy violation in a test account with v201806 is multiple exclamation points, which trigger the new PolicyFindingError (which is good that we can trigger that).
But, using all kinds of other ad text that produce PolicyViolationErrors in production in v201802 and/or are explicitly mentioned as violating the ad editorial policy (like "work @home", "big big SALE", "FR33 ShiPPiNG", "buy hunting rifle", various brand names that produce trademark violations in production, etc.) don't produce any kind of PolicyViolationError against our test accounts in v201806, breaking our tests and making it very hard to make sure the code works. For us, and possibly Peter, if you could just give us some example ad texts that would produce both exemptable and non-exemptable PolicyViolationErrors in test accounts with v201806, that'd be good enough (rather than, for example, trying to make the test accounts in v201806 do identical policy violation checks as production).
