That'd make sense, I think. From the article linked, it sounds like giving
the application in question might be approved with a "17+" rating. That's
probably reasonable where the application and its designer are drawing from
unrated content beyond their control. I'm sure many of us are familiar with
that game-rating euphemism, "Experience may change during online play." This
sounds like a similar idea to me.

Accepting the article at face value, I'm just confused why it seems to have
taken so much trouble to get Apple to say so.
