I think you've nailed it. I DO believe in FIFO and I guess most of the editors don't... which is where we ultimately differ.
And so I suppose my underlying suspicion has been confirmed. That in the absence of any kind of time ordered queuing, a "suggested site" might never get reviewed... simply because it didn't catch an editors eye.
And whilst some editors here have indicated that "years" or "never" is a perfectly acceptable time-scale or an unimportant one, the guidance from "Submit a Site" on DMOZ seems to indicate differently.
The above statement simply does not seem to tally with the views I'm getting here. Perhaps the statement should be changed?

An ODP editor will review your submission to determine whether to include it in the directory. Depending on factors such as the volume of submissions to the particular category, it may take several weeks or more before your submission is reviewed.
