A few things are correct, a few of them are grossly incorrect.
The R 10, also knows as completeness check is the first thing to happen in an application. <http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/perm/express/intake-complete.asp>
Here the application is only checked for the mandatory documents and not the content of those documents. R10 also triggers the 6 months processing time as stipulated below. In cases where applicants do not submit a mandatory document and explain it in a LoE, the R10 will be done subject to the concerned document being filed subsequently. So before R10 happens, nothing else can start. Saying the A11.2 can start before R10 happens, never seen it. I would love to see a GCMS note where this has happened. R10 is the first note in the GCMS followed by other notes.
The eligibility, which is A11.2 is a two step process. Most files are accessed by case analysts or program analysts who based on the documents make a recommendation, this is when the eligibility changes to "recommended passed." The file is then reviewed by an agent for inland applicants, or a visa officer for outland applicants, where applications are processed at the LVO. The Agent or the visa officer after reviewing the recommendation of the case analyst will make a final determination. In most cases, the agent will male the same determination, as the case analyst would, but not necessary.
I have seen a few cases where the Agent held that the A11.2 was not met and the application was rejected even though the case analyst had recommended passed. This is rare, but does happens. In some notes the case analyst will state "recommended passed" and in the same note will write review required for some specific documents. When these specific documents are reviewed, the eligibility decision can change.
Asking additional documents is not subject to R10. If the basic documents are submitted, r10 will be accessed against it. Request for additional documents, like the Sec A, Sec 4, do not fall under the R10, as these requests are made later in the processing when the criminality or security are being processed.
An average application will be processed in the following manner:
R10 - usually criminality is done alongside or immediately after
A11.2
Security.
