Yeah, the article is objecting to a fee for applying for the lotteries, but without them there would be so many speculative entries in the system that things wouldn't work.
I'd prefer a system in which you get a certain number of tokens that you can use to bid on various things. Speculative entries would lower your chances of actually getting what you want and thus be discouraged.
The article isn't against the lottery fee. It's against BAH making more money on the lottery fee than the park ends up making from the people who win the lottery.
