The point of the line you quoted was that people aren't separating that data and then trying to argue for balance changes based on that misinterpreted data.
It was also pointing out that they're designed to be "padded". The community seems to see it as being a bad thing, but anyone with an ounce of sense knows to attribute the additional damage done by those jobs to the jobs that helped them do it.
Yoshi said it himself during the Live Letter that they're designed to take advantage of group buffs.

What matters is the team, not the individual. Everyone lifts up everyone else.
