The point that's being made is that LOUD wasn't created from really established players in the scene, Sacy and Saadhak took players that hadn't even made international events, so why can't it be done again? aspas was just a ranked player (granted, an insanely high level one) with a few online tourneys when they picked him up, so why can't they do the same with qck?
But yeah, at face value it's a downgrade, though on the long run it may end up not being so
