The article and its title are a little bit deceptive. They tried to give the impression that wine bars are like in an unjustified and incorrect category by comparing to "strip clubs". But lost in the article is the real reason: They also illustrate challenges that are specific to the Mission District, born of legislation that was meant to fight gentrification. In 2018, the city capped the number of bars and restaurants that can operate in the neighborhood at 167. So the rule goals are there to fight gentrification, and not a log of things are as hipster as a "wine bar" in my opinion.
