Your Best Guess?

I always find the reading of guidelines interesting. Most times you can figure out more about the publisher/editor than about the magazine itself. But these guidelines, posted below, for a new publication have me stymied. (Except that the editor might be a bit anal.) What kind of stories are they looking for? I always believed that short stories have to have some kind of conflict to make a reader want to continue, but they seem to want no conflict whatsoever in their stories. The world doesn't wear rose-colored glasses and neither should our stories. So, does anyone have any idea of what exactly these people are looking for in a story? The guidelines seem to have eliminated every genre.
