A person with 50db to 90db sloping loss has a moderate to severe hearing loss. CI is for severe(70db) to profound(90+db) hearing loss.

Not necessarily. If a person has moderately-severe to profound loss in one ear and severe-profound (or profound) in the other in addition to a progressive hearing loss, they would qualify for a CI and rightfully so IMO.
