It's not obvious but I think it refers to the "by" line in the description of the submission types. In the normal "For Approval" case, it's the license steward who has appropriate standing. In the "Retirement" case, it's "license steward (only)", which hints that there might be cases where a non-steward could do an approval submission for the "approval" case (as has happened a few times). In the "Legacy Approval" case, it's the license steward or "interested licensee".
