A DBA can't fix a developer's code. A good 3/4 of the list linked in TFA are things a DBA or Architect can't affect.

At some point, a developer needs to be responsible for how they use a tool that's been provided for them. Abstractions break.

Well likewise, many of the DBAs I've worked with don't try and understand the software needs, and want the world to revolve around what is optimal for them.
