My interpretation was "If an industry that actively works to harm the global health of humanity through their addictive and unhealthy food products is using way more water and we're OK with it, maybe we should give a pass to the industry using a fraction of that water to improve human productivity."

Ton of nuance in my characterizations of both industries, of course, but to a first approximation they are accurate.
