That has literally zero bearing on the issue. What they're saying is that there's more homebrew content being generated than can be effectively managed by a dedicated team. If you expand the team size using community volunteers to a size that can manage the workload, you get two outcomes:
You end up with a team of moderators that is closed off, but with no oversight, meaning that there's no consistency in approval. Like many have said, quality of homebrew is subjective. For it to be consistent, you either need a small team that can confer and communicate, or a set or rules to guide a large team. Neither will work with the volume of content
You end up with the system we have here, where the 'team' is completely open to all and effectively becomes community moderation with full transparency. That's what they've gone with.
I've analyzed the mechanics of countless games from a number and element perspective made wise. No professional experience, but I've fine tuned statistics to a point where I bet it would even bewilder the experts - even enough to go solo.
For a test, look at my creations for the values. Some may be quirky, but it does the job. (ex: Shydra V2 with investigation 15. Being the ultimate peace spirit, it's viable, but also insanely low stats as well)

This statement is meant to be both provocative and condescending. Look at these pathetic huddled masses in their private and closed games, cringing behind the policy of no homebrews and no custom content. This is an insult and injury even to fire types. HEED THIS! Your better off playing rpgmaker. It's everything this place wants to be when it grows up. Seriously. Otherwise, good luck, they will overdo things. All because of safety and security... kor.

Your shydra is 100% unusable in its current form. It heals infinitely, dies instantly, has several lines in its abilities that don't mean anything in official rule language, and its skills and attack modifiers don't reflect its stats at all.
It is a prime example of a homebrew that wouldn't get posted on an approval based system.

One of his claims is true though: he does bewilder the experts.
