A marketing term should at least be accurate.

Nah it's too subjective. For many, living in a new construction is indeed a luxury.

🤷♂️They’re just words, as long as we Build enough housing and the deli makes good sandwiches I don’t really care

M'kay. So, what about when you buy a phone that's advertised as the latest iPhone...but they give you a Samsung from 10 years ago? Or if you order food advertised as a 100% beef burger but they give you a salad? A gemstone they say is AAA grade but is really commercial quality or below?
The accurate use of words is important, as is having standards or criteria needed to use those words in the advertisement.
Not dismissing we need more affordable housing, etc, but to call something 'luxury' that obviously isn't is just shady bad practice.

You don't know what a false equivalent is, do you? You poor thing. At this point I'm deeming you either a bored troll or a person with low IQ. Take your pick. Enjoy the day!
