From a consequentialist/utilitarian perspective, you'd say that the utility benefit if you allowed a million more people to live in SF at affordable rents would outweigh by orders of magnitude the disutility of incumbents.
Another framing is just the attitude that it's wrong to exclude the poor from a community via high rents. I think people that focus on this framing are also relatively friendly to rent control, but building more housing is arguably more radically inclusive.
