In the scheme of it being "someone's home", it's not much different than renting it out for a longer period. Both are temporary and are at high risk for being kicked out. (Compared to owning it) No one I know who rents the home they're in claims it to be "their home".

It's pretty much the exact opposite of being someone's home.

A long-term rental may not be permanent, but it's still a home for the duration of the rental. An AirBnB is not, by definition.
