I think both sides are just missing the other side's opinions or are not considering them as of high importance.
Frankly, many of the newer strip malls and what not have not been designed with green features in mind... I mean... are there green roofs on the shops at Queensborough Landing? Marine Drive Crossing (the strip mall at Marine and Byrne in Burnaby)? etc. So I guess to impose requirements on this new building may be unfair as well.
Having said that, a green roof on this building would set a really cool example and make it stand out from the rest, much like the Convention Centre addition and its roof of varying grasses and what not.
