May be true, but it is approved by FDA as a no-rinse sanitizer at the labeled concentration. They'll never tell you to use a different concentration, it would be illegal for them to do that. Can't tell you what the effect would be, but it may have nothing to do with yeast health or flavor.

Because of flavor issues or pH issues?  Seems like any remaining volume would still be diluted out so much that it would have a negligible affect on the pH of your final volume of beer in the fermentation vessel.

So at what mixture do I need to be concerned?

I don't know which or how much.  But Five Star is great about answering questions, so you could email them.
