Why are these mutually exclusive?

(Can we use Airbnb celebrating the other side as evidence that Airbnb's preferred laws don't serve visitors, they serve the VC lobby?)

If aribnb reps would say something like "we're glad this law got passed, now we can charge more and not be afraid of competition" then yes. But I don't remember Airbnb sponsoring any exclusionary laws, it's the hotel lobby that does. And they don't even bother to put a transparent screen of saying "great day for safety!", they just plain go out and say "great day for us charging more!".
