I don't have a beef with this argument, yet Phoenix's record while Treliving was assistant GM there doesn't suggest amazing results from over-cooking.
Something that has happened while he was an assistant there, and GM here is a first round pick demanding trade because he believed his career was being sewered. So there's that.
