It’s not overzealous. Wikipedia has bandwidth and doesn’t want to duplicate what’s already on https://www.wikidata.org/ (which doesn’t have notability). Notability is sort of a compromise on what will be maintained as an article to not have these you need to maintain just explode.
Not to mention some of the defectors are also “mods”, if you mean admin by that. On Wikipedia, admins are seen a bit more like janitors who know the rules.
Ah ok. From the perspective of the guy who’s complaining, it just sounds like they are very strict and don’t allow some direct sources or some very evident facts to be allowed.
The use of primary sources has long been restricted to minimal usage, since primary means any form of self-published claim. And that sort of source shouldn’t contribute to any form of notability.
