Yes it was a comment about how unappealing this is, we do the same thing whenever somebody else here brags about the tech solution which lacks product market fit.

Shopping for a home has to appeal to people that are in the market for a home. The phrasing is not exclusive to buying versus renting, but colloquially thats what it implies. People in the bay area currently on the market wouldn't be looking for this, it would be the new and naive next year and the year after that may wind up considering this. The current market is people that can make down payments on million dollar+ mortgages and that doesn't include living in the carcass of a suburban mall.
