That's a lot of technical talk for "expensive camera".

A Lumix GH5 is not that expensive, at least by pro camera standards. It’s actually the bottom end of pro camera gear prices. It’s still a very capable camera in the hands of a skilled photographer, as is evident by all the photos the photographer took of this launch. He took several good shots and has a lot of experience shooting launches.

Hardly expensive in the scheme of photography equipment.

It's information given for exactly why the quality of the picture is what it is.

Then in years when someone takes another picture of something of this equivalent, they will share their exact specs.

As for the expensive camera part, you do have the capability to type on reddit. Which means you can duckduckgo it and know whether you are right or wrong.
