They aren't contradictary. A better analogy would be if they wrote an article like "the whole premise of banning spraypaint is daft", they still wouldn't want random strangers spraypainting their bedroom.

"Dogs should be legal to have as pets" yet "I don't own a dog"

"Banning sushi is daft" yet "I don't want sushi smeared on my house"

"Checking for human writing is daft" yet "I don' want strangers to be able to SSH to my webserver and edit the HTML files with their comments"
