I mean I try to have nuanced perspectives about the world. I'm against abortions as a social conservative but that doesn't mean that I have a wooden perspective on it. If the mother's life is in danger, if the woman was raped, incest, then I can be reasonable regardless of how strong or grounded i feel about that specific ethical issue. That doesn't mean that I'm not being consistent with my ideology, it just means that most things in life don't have a black and white answer.
People immediately hear water and graphics cards and immediately formulate in which price gouging should be appropriate and which it shouldn't without hearing the circumstances.
You're looking at this as a dichotomy. We don't need to rely on the market to supply water. We can just, ya know, have a properly funded and administrated disaster response force. Unfortunately, we keep electing Republicans.
