It may be mistaken and exaggerated, but did you really intend to write that wickerman is being disingenuous?

He's misrepresenting Dublin intentionally to contrive the point that AirBnB and student accomodation are entirely the cause of the problem.

It's far more nuanced and complex -- involving tax laws, property dev incentives and planning laws and policy. None of which he mentions.

involving tax laws

property dev incentives - airbnb & student housing

planning laws - airbnb & student housing

policy - airbn and student housing

All of these except possibly the first item could directly address airbnb & student housing. I'm not seeing where you 2 disagree.
