If I let people into my house I want to see them and decide whether I want to let them in. As far as I remember airbnb requires pictures. Maybe they shouldn't do that and let property owners decide whether they want to see a picture and reject people without.

And what useful information does a picture give you that helps you decide whether to let a person in?

Do you check ID at the door? No. You make sure it matches the picture.
