I don't see any inconsistency. Users are asked to submit the original source as the top link. Workaround/archive URLs are welcome in the comments. We sometimes put such links in the toptext too. It works the same for any site.

There doesn’t seem to be a good reason to not apply the submission policy to the top text, for the same reason it’s applied to the link.

  The toptext is often used for archive links which allow users to read otherwise-paywalled articles.
