For those unaware, Greystar is a major property management company in the US for residential apartments:

It's a great summary of the issues. Some of the less talked about points is an outsized disparate impact of these scent machines on reportedly 85.4% of autistic individuals, as pointed in the opening statement of this lawsuit, which I'm sure many HN readers could certainly relate to.

They may be stretching a bit, but the statistics is still on their side, and their filings are very explicit that they actually demand compliance (sure, they probably had to add that for some legitimacy, but they did add that nonetheless).
