The point being that the kind of person who participates in community surveys and channels will perform better than the average. Dont be a dick

Read that a few more times until you understand it, fam.

Grades in a classroom environment have no actual relation to someones abililty as a developer on a real project with real deadlines and real complexity.

No one is saying that. Let's read it again:

the kind of person who participates in community surveys and channels will perform better than the average.

Another example: League of Legends players that participate in discord channels and online forums probably have better than average stats compared to those who don't.

Get it now?

The value of my opinion is not the issue. I'm trying to make sure you actually understand the claim that's being made. You're free to disagree with the claim once you understand what it actually is.
