No... He's suggesting that maybe the oil pump driveshaft bearings could stand to have less oil in order to have potentially better flow to rod bearings, as well as potentially higher pressure/flow available to the head, turbo and other systems which more typically have oil starvation problems.
I for one have never heard of someone taking apart a 7M and having the oil pump driveshaft bearings show oil starvation damage without other more severe problems elsewhere.
The block that I'm building had major damage to the mains and rod bearings, but the oil pump driveshaft bearings were all still in spec and looked perfect, even though it had obviously been run with inadequate oil pressure/flow for an extended period of time, causing destruction of several sets of rod bearings.
Though this may not apply to all blocks, I believe that it would be safe to say that had the oil holes to the driveshaft bearings been slightly smaller, or the bearing holes not completely aligned, they'd have been okay.
Still, given enough unknowns, like the possibility of oil forcing itself between the block and the bearings causing less clearance between the crank and bearing and increasing the possibility of spinning a bearing, I'd still do the work to match it, in the end.
