Read the WIKI or the first posts.
The KFI holds by Kasrus standards that not every Hechsher or restaurant measures up to.   
When the KFI evaluates a place and deems it worthy of the set standards, they certify it as such which gives people the peace of mind to eat there.
I read the wiki way before asking, my question is why lechem obasar was a chiddush specifically

I'ts not a Chiddush that davka Lechem Basar got approved, it just happens to be they were.
Seeing how the vast majority of places are not KFI approved its news whenever a new place is.

He said it was purely financial. They do not plan on getting anything else

You heard this from R' Weiner yourself? R' Moshe says that Ashkenazim can eat it, why would they argue?
It seems r moshe is not clear on the subject, which is why I believe the kfi never said anything official about it.
 P. S. It's not a Kashrus question, it's a side question weather a cut of meat which only sefardim eat, if an ashkenazi can eat when made by a sefardi.

Yes I spoke to him myself. He didn't say it's asur, as Reb Moshe does matir it if it is cut a certain way. Rabbi Weiner said he doesn't know exactly how Machpud cuts it. So until they find out he said you should stay away from it.
