An intuitive explanation:

At fast growth, protein clearance rates are very similar across the proteome (green distribution below).

At slow growth, protein clearance rates vary widely across the proteome (purple distribution below).

When comparing growing and non-growing cells, the difference in clearance rates is more substantial for long lived proteins, and thus their abundance is reduced in the growing state unless synthesis rates compensate. We find this compensation is insufficient to explain these changes.
