I guess this is the reason lot of corporates try to stay out of politics. Because once you set a precedence then people will use that as to push their own political agendas. I personally don't like the slippery slope argument since it's very lazy and justifies inaction in many cases. But at the same time when I see news like this, I just wonder how long it will take two different subgroups trying push their own conflicting agendas and how the company should react in such a case.

Slippery slopes are not always a fallacy, roughly the same way appeal to authority is not a fallacy when the authority is indeed an expert.

Appeal of authority is a logical fallacy, even if an expert is use to argue.
That alone doesn't mean that the expert is wrong, nor does invalidate the argument, as not all the arguments need to be strictly logical (logic <> truth).
