Space-X has now completed 30 cargo trips to the ISS, and 8 crewed trips.

Meanwhile, the ULA Starliner launch that was supposed to happen early this week has been delayed until at least late May.[1]

Of course it is, in part. The article repeatedly mentions SpaceX, because they're the primary competitor for resupply missions. As such Dream Chaser has to be judged against that competition. Discussing SpaceX as it relates to competing with Dream Chaser, makes perfect sense given the context.
