I am one hundred percent convinced it was someone's wake-up call. Remember - this is the industry that brought you the Fyre Festival. The one article I saw mentioned that they had a couple pass out at one of the hotter clubs and realized that maybe there weren't a whole lot of safeguards associated with it. But then, this is the nightclub industry, so their Wikipedia page is still up.

Which probably prompted copycats.

And hey - maybe for $85k someone will actually pay for safety monitoring.
