I don't even think that it's controversial to say that everything above survival requirements are "wants".

The controversial part is more the suggestion that everything you have, above basic survival requirements, should be open for being taken away from you by the government because you don't really need it and people like Itse and Rando think they have a better use for it.

That said, this is sort of like climate change. It's clearly a serious problem that needs to be addressed, it's just that some peoples' suggestions to address the issue, including (apparently) making it effectively illegal to have more than $X, seem a bit over the top.
