I'd say the point is having your cake and eating it too if you're a political party. To the public, you can say "we did all of these things in the public interest" and you can present some misleading data, because they still would have collected millions. And to the sacred oil and gas industry recklessly endangering a whole planet for the profit of a very small group of people, you can wink and say "you're good; don't worry, the rules created for you don't actually apply to you"
