They are not discriminating. Elon can purchase the same amount of stocks (proportionally) at the same price as every other shareholder.

It's just that since the strike price is lower than the price he is offering to buy the company at, other investors are better off exercising their warrants and then selling to elon.

Why do you believe that, against what Twitter board actually said and how other poison pills worked in the past?
