You have a good point. But the main articles point is that much of what is called crowdsourcing isn't. It is the work of one individual out of a crowd to which a few others may or may not make smaller contributions.
This is not to say that there are not true crowdsourced projects (despite what the article says, I think wikipedia is a shining example) but that many things identified as crowdsourced are not, or at least not in the way that the nontechnical public thinks of it.
