It's only true because the market allows them to do that. The reason those unicorns lowball on salary is because they can.
If workers keep saying "yes, I'll take tulips in lieu of salary," the market will adjust and pay lower salary.
If workers say "nope, it's a good market out there, I either want salary or very good protections against dilution," then they'll have to pay market wages.
