Why do I always need to rationalize use of proper architecture? (szmer.info)

Why is it so in mobile development that 90% of projects does not have proper architecture, and when there is one, devs complain about it. I don't see it being a case for other technologies of development, only mobile. In mobile the project always has spaghetti code, barely any abstraction it is developed just to be finished as quickly as possible and that's it. And when there is clean architecture introduced, everyone complains. Why is it just a case in mobile development?

Just disclaimer: It is not like the architecture in project is completely new invention, it uses well known principles and approaches

But the fact is the clients I work with usually have bigger budgets and expects quality and maintanable project. Where I work, it is expected to have professionals, not the everyday developer just taught himself to create flutter app and does everything in one huge class. Also the principles I follow are not there just to make it pretty. It makes it easier to avoid bugs and adapt to new requirements. The architecture is not just to make myself feel better, it has real influence on the project. And I don't see such discussions when the backend is developed, it is just a standard to follow some practices
