This isn't about somebody "trying to eat". Devs are being paid by the publishers either way (until they get fired of course). Monetisation and "games as a live service" are implemented to increase profit for shareholders. Gamepublishing is already the largest entertainment industry, so this is just about adding more profits to already extreme profits.
