You can obviously compensate by changing other taxes to be more progressive, this is such a silly argument.

Sure but that doesn't happen. Start by doing that, not by implementing the regressive part first.
A nuance is perhaps lost, I'm not saying don't do it, merely that simplistic messaging feeds into the binary crisis.
