I have stumbled into W lobbis with cocktails all over the country. Is this Bloomberg also?

'Tis true. If the bar industry is looking just to me to prop them up, then I'm afraid they're doomed. But, I am confident I'm not the only one who eschewed bar crawling (or didn't do it as much as one otherwise would have) because of the smoke.
I suppose there are those who now won't go to bars because of the new rules, but eventually, equilibrium will be reached again.
I don't know what the deal is with the W lobby -- I haven't heard or read anywhere that as part of the new rules. Maybe they just don't like you.
