Maybe they haven't attached the shiny pieces yet?
As for the article, it sounds like architecture is like many other industries that exploit the young and/or hungry with the promise of 'experience' and 'exposure' in return for little or no actual pay. I have seen this in both the start-up tech world with the promise of stock options in lieu of an actual salary, 'because we're going to be the next unicorn' and in the creative world, 'because we will make all our money back once we create a bestseller, then we can pay you' Maybe that's a reason why people dream about a side hustle or starting their own firm. If they are going to work for little or no pay, they might as well do it on their own terms.
