Using いらっしゃる vs いる when referring to 方


I have the following from [a tourism article](https://matcha-jp.com/jp/6267):

> ただ、2018年｛ねん｝に築地｛つきじ｝から豊洲｛とよす｝に市場｛いちば｝機能｛きのう｝が移転｛いてん｝したことをご存知｛ぞんじ｝の
> **方｛かた｝もいらっしゃる**
> でしょう。「築地｛つきじ｝は今｛いま｝も観光｛かんこう｝に値｛あたい｝するスポットなの？」。そんな疑問｛ぎもん｝を持｛も｝つ **方｛かた｝もいる**
> かもしれません。

In the first case, it uses いらっしゃる, a respectful version of the second case's
いる.

Yet, both uses 方{かた} as a respectful way to refer to a person, so I assume
that the general nuance of the sentences is respectful. If that's the case,
why doesn't the second case use いらっしゃる also?




USUALLY you'd have to stick to either 丁寧語 (polite word) or 普通語 (casual word)
in the whole context. I say USUALLY because sometimes even Japanese people
ignore this rule. So yeah you are absolutely right, it should have been
"そんな疑問を持つ方もいらっしゃるかもしれません。" if whoever wrote these sentences had followed the
rule. In saying that, I don't think そんな疑問ぎもんを持もつ方かたもいるかもしれません。 is totally
incorrect either.
