Only criminal defendants have a right to an attorney, not all humans, and the obligation to provide one is placed on the state if it wishes to make someone a criminal defendant, not on attorneys.
If the state is unable to meet the obligation, then it simply can’t procede with making someone a criminal defendant. In other words, this right can exist because the ‘demand’ for it is manmade and limitable, not natural and unlimited, and (unlike hunger, or the need for shelter or medical care) is always absolutely within the control of the state.
Not to be that guy but you have a right to an attorney. That requires the labor of others.
We need better arguments... not even sure a good way to do phrase it all.

This is a good defense to the argument.
