I don't have to apply any specific context to that sentence as everyone who takes part in the discussion and is not just out to flame others like you understands it.
1. The question was about Animate Dead and Summon Demons.
2. D&D, especially 4E is build around the idea that the PCs are heroes (= the good guy) which is why they are considered wasted space in the MM (no, not everything revolves around your personal preferences)
3. NPC won't have written out "out of combat" abilities like, for example wishes or things like Animate Dead or Summon Demons unless they are used in combat. Such background abilities have to be made up by the DM when more details are required. Which means they don't follow rules.
