Now you're nitpicking.
The verb form is incidental to the OP's question, which was about subject and predicate in a particular structure. Perhaps just a slip by the author, which I pointed out.
The point is that the structure is fine. The only real error by the source was that they called the conjunction a subordinating one, whereas it's actually a coordinating one linking two VPs.
