I suspect there's a significant element of blame shifting in it. like "oh, you got scammed while using public wifi, then it's your fault!", just like attributing the victim's bad luck to their being a sinner, or assigning the blame for a car accident to the person who had left their driver's license at home, rather than to the person who made a dangerous move. van halen's brown m&m's come to mind: if you can't even follow such trivial security&safety advice, we shouldn't trust you to more serious matters.
and then, there's probably misinterpreted scientific data suggesting that most people getting scammed were on public wifi. not that public wifi impacted their security, but just because a lot of people use public wifi.
now, sure, relying on a rando-provided DNS server for security-critical name resolution is probably poor security practice indeed, and various hotspots actively mess with dns, but with https and domain certificates, that's largely irrelevant now
