A thought experiment would be to wonder if the same people that think it's ok to share "public" knowledge of the location of Elon's jet would agree to the same for Hillary Clinton, Obama, Newsom or Fauci.

I'm genuinely curious how uniformly these beliefs are held, or if it's just a determination that Musk ain't in the club any longer and is considered fair game.

Tracking flights of politicians is most definitely important public knowledge. It's one of the most useful tools to get some insight into what might be going on in the world, like the recent visit to Taiwan, yesterdays visit by Russia to Venezuela, etc.

If they own private jets then that information is already out there. Why would you have to wonder about this?
