Red snapper

I agree 100%! Recreational and Commercial ought to have the same access to the same resource and same limits doesn't matter whether you're selling it or not!

At a minimum ban the export of snapper

Here is the thing I struggle with...........
What actually gives someone the right to profit off a public resource? Don't get me wrong, I am a capitalist. I am not "anti-guide" as I have though many times about getting my license but when we come to a point where a resource is supposedly "unsustainable", why does it lean in favor of the commercial market? What right do they have to the fish that would exclude the private sector.

Why is it that we approach commercial fishermen differently than commercial waterfowlers?

I would apply it across the board

Season and daily limits and dates should be the same for all commercial and recreational.

Both contribute to over harvesting. The commercial fisherman sells the meat. It seems one step further but I get your point.
