I think its because in some of these cases the founder(s) persuade people to work for them at below market salaries by selling them a dream that seems to involve said employees "being in it together" with them, when the equity distribution says anything but.
I think if a startup is paying market rate or above, then the employees have no reason to feel like when the company sells or goes public that they should make out like bandits too.
