Some homeschool for religious reasons, other safety, some for a better education, and sometimes homeschooling (like public school) does not work well for the individual.
Having choices is important. I respect those who don't do things the same way I do, but I lose respect when they try to take away those choices.
Sadly, some people hate homeschooling and that choice and want to take it away because it is a choice they would not make. I see such as controlling. Same as I do other choices from abortion to smoking in a bar where can chose to go to or not go to (grocery stores/doctors/etc are places people have to go to though).
For me it always comes down to choice, across the issues - but some only see a singular issue and not the principles behind it.
