why not? you rather suffer out of principle? what difference does it make if it's company or local citizen chalenging stupid rule? I fail to see difference if it's something majority will benefit from

We don't want it to become accepted that a company uses its weight to change city ordinances it doesn't like. Because more often than not, it'll end up doing so in a way we don't like.
municipal administration can always disagree, it's not blank check if you agree once for good of the people with company, not sure what's so difficut to understand about it, but maybe it's ingrained in american heads from your judicial system based on precedents (AFAIK)

it doesn't even need to be exception, you can change rules for everyone if it's good idea, no mater who is proposing change
