Absolutely. Indeed they haven’t even discussed a law for this yet.
It is indeed problematic to use the ‘not all humans” line. But it is at least a defence against the “all humans” claim.That being said, and as much as I don't particularly enjoy agreeing with the not all humans crowd, banning all humans from Krakoa would be problematic.
To be honest, I do expect some of these issues to come up in stories. The new status quo begs exploration of such issues. We have many months if not years to explore this kind of thing.It would put human parents in the impossible situation of having to decide whether to maintain custody of their children or give them up to Krakoa in the belief it will be a more safe place for them to live. As for a specific example, there are the Guthries, one of the most supportive families in comics, who themselves have been the target of violence because of their familial relations. If they weren't allowed on Krakoa, that would be pretty shitty (although it would explain why Paige nopes out of Krakoa).

Generally? They have. Totally? No. After all, it's hard to say everyone has the same opinion. Hickman is most certainly not showing all humans as bigots, but at the very least a segment of the ones antagonizing the X-Men. I admit that the current politic state of my country makes me more favorable to so called extreme measures against bigoted groups. The fact that I'm browsing this thread listening to Words of Wisdom, which is maybe too appropriate of a song for this theme, isn't helping in making me more empathetic to Marvel humans (and who am I to say Tupac was wrong). Anyway, human bigotry against humans has crossed far too many lines for me to say "I would definitely not do the same in their place". But I do hope things get to a point where such measures aren't necessary.
No. Indeed we have seen how laws will get decided and that law isn’t yet part of the story. If it was a law it wouldn’t be very good law because it is ambiguous. Using the term ‘Man’ can mean ‘all humans’ or can just mean ‘mankind’ in a general rhetorical manner.
In other words what Magneto said is irrelevant until we see how it is applied and or legislated for.

Someone remind me how many human allies flocked to the XMen when they lived in Utopia. There was no "no humans allowed" edict then. So someone please post a panel of Byron Braddock stopping by for a cup of tea or Corsair catching ball with his son on Utopias beach.
The minute mutants ask for some boundaries and proclaim something they created themselves is just for them, everybody wants to be involved. The real life parallels are incredibly funny.

But sure, let's keep the narrative alive that all sapiens are the same.
There certainly is a lack of diverging opinions presented here.
Yes, they "might" all want the same thing. But just on the how, there should be different opinions being expressed. Hopefully, other voices will be heard down the line - beyond Xavier/Magneto that is.
"The means are as important as the end - we have to do this right or not at all.
Anything less negates every belief we've ever had, every sacrifice we've ever made."
"Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely."
"No justice, no peace."
Okay, Mutants are risks is one they have they to take, they don't have to take any risk on humans. It is that simple
