4-Move Slot Syndrome (or 4MSS) is a term that comes from competitive Pokemon (I think), that game too has Mons that can only have 4 moves but desperately could use a 5th move, same concept can be applied to ML, too many good moves means something's not gonna make the cut, which, as Kyrem said, can be very detrimental to a Monster.

Take a look at Francine Frank, if she had 5 move slots she could easily be higher on the Viability Ranking, but due to only having 4 slots she'll have to either miss out on a lot of survivability (seeing as she is a Tank, that's bad) or on most of her offensive capabilities (which would in turn make her way too passive and kinda just become dead weight sometimes if she doesn't get her Ultimate).
