Because the paywall [alone] is not a suitable filter for the quality.
Medium isn't different from all that recipe sites, it is just the payment [or the hope of it] is semi-direct there instead of an indirect ads payouts. As with recipes you can't publish 3 articles a year and reap hundreds, you need to pump it constantly so you will have a higher chance to catch even a small fry.
Also the site design (at least the default one?) sucks, IMO. Why do the page needs to be 3xFullHD screens for a ~2500 char article (not including ad-footer)? Why do I see an essentially mobile presentation with 20px (why px?!) fonts on a landscape FullHD screen?
