I think there's a little more to it. The article's message is about housing affordability eroding.
It is using Mr. DUI as a thematic proof point to highlight the messaging. I think we all agree this proof point is a hilariously bad one.
Bad proof points take away from the main message (even if the message is true).
To me, if anything, this article hurt the perception of housing affordability issues more than it was supposed to help because of a very poor choice of its main source.
