Margin to go long does not require someone else's property as collateral. That is the difference. Again legal shorting you have to borrow someone else's property and when american;s deposit their holdings they surrender rights as to what is done with that property.

Thus brokers can use it to loan to a short sell to counter the property owners investmnet strategy.

That is what is wrong with legal shorting vs margin buying.
