Do candidate symbols limit which opponent events I can trigger?

The designer said events have no owner, and the rulebook's triggering rule applies to any played card.

No. Symbols do not restrict triggering. A player may spend one momentum marker to trigger the event on any card the opponent plays for points, unless that card was played as an event or pre-empted with two markers. The rulebook's Triggering Events section does not tie the trigger to symbols.
