I've always thought those kinds of large-scale search-and-replace diffs should not generally be expected to be reviewed. If a review is 1000's of lines of identical changes (or newly-vendored code), literally nobody is actually reading it, even if they are somehow able to convince themselves that they are.
I would rather just see the steps you ran to generate the diff and review that instead.
