Hi Max,
After some hesitation I resolved to cut into this learned dialogue. Two consecutive words with similar meaning are not always a redundancy: the device can be used as a means of re-inforcement, which is just about the opposite. And apart from the demands of rhythm, this is what "but just" is here for i.m.h.o.

What do the board members think about the certain verse forms being specific to poets?

That makes more sense than what I was wondering about (i.e., certain verse forms being best for certain subjects). I guess that most poets would generally write in a favorite particular form.

Tsyganka, who sits corrected
