Sorry, kids, typos, and fragmented thoughts. I find myself up and down from the keyboard, I try to get in it quick and at the start..lol.
It can determine whether or not a concept conforms to its system of rules, but to bring that concept out of the realm of philosophy and into the physical world you require something else.
The statement implies nothing, it's a cut and dry statement that what can be imagined does not have to be real simply because it can be imagined. It can be "real as a thought", "real as a concept" "true to itself" "true to the core principles of philosophy"...and still be nothing but a thought. Sometimes language can be ambiguous and create discord where there is none, and I see potential for that in the statement I just made, but I'm unwilling to offer any olive branch by modifying the statement as I criticize the very behaviour that I would be appeasing.
