That's a great point. Text and images are easy and damn near free to copy and distribute (unlike video). So it is very easy to copy content from Twitter and post it elsewhere (where those publishers can then monetize it themselves). Compare that to say...video hosted on YT/FB where, when embedded, can still include ads that allows those platforms to monetize people sharing their content offsite.
