The Short Answer: Potentially fraudulent transactions are "scrubbed" out prior to the charge, thus reducing charge backs

It means hamburgers instead of steak.

A processor applies their own rules to determine whether or not to take a chance on enabling a credit card (or other) transaction.

Different processors have different rules.

Some take many things into account (country, matching names/addresses, etc) and are very careful (ie. pass on more potential sales than others might).

The idea is to find a balance between chargeback ratios and sales which keeps everyone in business.

It's a reference to cleaning, meaning that they are scrubbing the transactions, so the bad or "dirty" ones get washed away.
