Ah ... relativism raises it's head and casts a malevolent eye on the proceedings.

The use of the term "by that logic" signals an intent to provide an analogy.  Such analogies are often shaded toward the absurd, the better to illustrate the point.  Moral equivalence is a slippery slope.  The statement under consideration posits that one should be respected simply for standing up for what one believes in - without questioning the underlying belief.  This is intellectually facile.

All it takes for evil to triumph, is for good men to do nothing.  ~  Edmund Burke

In closing, it does not appear to me that "choosing not to add a feature" is the same as crippling an existing capability in specific circumstances that one finds unseemly.
