Do art side hustles ever become main hustles or is it just a form of coping with failure?

Depends on their success. Obviously there a good number of artists who are living of patreon, or merch sales, or commission sales, or making youtube vids (personally I don't think that's an art career though).
Many won't have it be their main career though anon, it's a high competitive, sought after, and beloved type of job - just like how how every band gets a records label, or how not every actor breaks into Hollywood. There's only so much money, and so much attention to go around; so do something interesting that DOES grab people's attention, and is worth their time and money... and even then, it's still highly dependent on luck.

If their side hustle is being an art teacher, you a literally right; if it's not, you are literally wrong.
