I don't really buy the political economy either. Nobody is calling to lower the 400k cap to 150k, it's just some random status quo bullshit that if it was never included nobody would care about.

It sounds like the kind of thing legislators throw in without thinking and if they didn't bother to nobody would push them on it.
Most people in the making low six figures, especially if it takes two incomes, are income constrained. They would definitely make different choices if they had more money (most especially, around that second income).
