Yes, ethics is agnostic to one's personal convictions when it is your job. Same as how defense lawyers leave their personal sense of justice out of their jobs.

Yes, ethics is agnostic to one's personal convictions when it is your job.
Same as how defense lawyers leave their personal sense of justice out of their jobs.
Same as how sports referees don't let their childhood fandom of a particular team affect their calls.
Same as how actors will be physically intimate with people the opposite of the sexual preference.

Their ethics changed and now they think LGBT people should be discriminated against explicitly. Nobody supporting Margaret Mitchell would be defending this new convert's application of the personal ethics in their job. That proves this is merely a convenient argument on their part, not a principled one.
