It's a common tactic in new fields. Fusion, AI, you name it are all actively lobbying to get new regulation because they are "different", and the individual companies want to ensure that it's them that sets the tone.

Looks the same as taking "rebate for green energy" and then asking to "stop such rebates" a few years later

Exactly. I'm reminded of Gavin Belson saying something along the lines of "I don't want to live in a world where someone makes it a better place to live than we do" in Silicon Valley.
