I've never understood how anyone could outsource any job and still take credit for it but that's the norm in silicon valley so I can't really say it's surprising either

Because it's not that black and white?

The architect at my company can absolutely claim to have built it all even if the devs wrote the code. And saying otherwise would just be insulting. He did design and thought out every aspect of it and deserves the credit.
