I thought I understood, but I still have Beehaw content in my feed, so I guess I don’t understand after all… Can someone dumb it down for me?

Yeah, I don’t believe for one second that those 4 admins have actually, meaningfully, personally vetted 11,000+ users. People have posted (sorry, I dont have the link) here that they just filled the “application” out with nonsense and still got approved.
So, if they are struggling the moderate a community with 11,000+ users, it would make sense for them to limit an even large number of external users for the time being until they feel they have things better in control, correct?
That’s not what I’m commenting on, but yeah, naturally. It’s their instance, they can do what they want.
Doesn’t surprise me too much tbh. I don’t think I’d make an account with Beehaw but I might end up making one with a small instance they federate with to have access. While they have a right to defederate it’s not something I like seeing.
