I think you're grasping here. Again, editing should be done by people who actually know how to do the work.
I hire editors. In years past, I've also trained and supervised interns. Intern candidates are the pool that you are talking about. We hire fewer and fewer of those now, because money has shrunk and we don't have time to train them. Without training, they make mistakes that would actually cost us money and credibility.
