That's an interesting question. Could someone have a serious mental health disorder that would never manifest without certain triggers.

I'm not qualified to guess but I suspect it would be possible. Then if it's possible the rate that it happens would be important. If it's rare then it might not be important in the discussion of causes of mental health problems.

Isn't that the entire point of the article and study that we are commenting on?

Yes, the article covers one drug and one mental illness. I'm extrapolating to all recreational drugs and mental illnesses.
