I assume that they mean in addition to QA. I worked on COD, those QA testers were some of the best FPS players I've ever seen. I can't explain when or how due to my NDA, but I've seen professional players/streamers get stomped by QA. You could even tell which ones have spent the most time working on live multiplayer by how well they play.

The best pinball players in the world are the machine techs. Because they know all the exploitable flaws.

So you're saying we can play it now if we just go download it.

Eh, they're going to get banned on launch 💯. Not super into rockpapershotgun's clickbait headlines.

There's always people ahead of the curve. You're never gonna contend for the best just by starting at the same time as everyone else anyhow. Being the best takes raw ability, hard work, and something special that I've determine matters most. The most important thing for being the best is that you gotta want to do the thing purely for the sake of the thing. There's no feedback loop that'll ever beat the motivation of wanting the actual thing. Think Goku. He wants to fight.

I'm a flow artist and I'm REALLY good. I got this way because there's nothing I like better than pushing myself to move dexterously like this. I'm also the top ranked project muse player and got there before I had any idea I was actually that good. I'm just obsessed and being the best is a byproduct.
