Then, I also looked at their data and code and realized that this formulation is maybe just one way to "enforce" No-Arbitrage ...

You exclude from your universe stocks whose history is too short (i.e. only recently went public). Sometimes it breaks your heart to do that, because you really like the stock. (If the time series is long enough, but still has small gaps, there are ways to "fix" the covariance matrix.)
You use models to predict the ...

Points represent efficient portfolios from variance minimization given a target return
The linear combination looks more like an approximation
