Yes, it's somewhat a matter of perspective.

Although I'd point out that it's not just rich people who appreciate San Francisco's aesthetic.

Have you met poor people who care about vertical zoning laws in San Francisco or are you just assuming they exist and speaking for them?

I appreciate San Francisco's aesthetic, and I'm not rich. Many of my friends appreciate San Francisco's aesthetic, and they're not rich. Many tourists come to San Francisco every day to admire the city's aesthetic. I don't think you read my statement very well.

Are you suggesting there's no gray area between rich and poor?

But of course it's rich people who are prioritizing it above affordable housing.
