>Hyperbole does not make for a valid argument and this is what the laws supporters seem to always resort to

Neither does saying "oh how dare they interfere in the sacred ability of two consenting parties to work together."

All I did was point out that the ship has sailed long ago and using that form of moral argument doesn't fly.

No, because that moral argument still matters. Just because it hadn’t been adhered to in a purist sense doesn’t mean we’ve all agreed to, for example, a centrally managed economy, which would be the extreme on the other end.

This California law is by my estimation very invasive and bad. I come to that conclusion in part based on how much it violates the moral right to engage in commerce.
