you're right in that regard. But I'm looking at it as net of the whole system inputs.
You put in one house, I put in one house. There are no resultant houses for others to consume remaining.
Another way to think about it might be manual farm labor. If an acre of food grows enough potatoes to feed 1.2 people (idk if that's true), and it takes 1 person to labor over. The acre is only producing enough food to have .2 people as non-farmers.

If there are only non-farmers, the farmland doesn't produce any food (discounting wild berries or whatever grows when farmland is wasted). The farm can simply produce for 1.2 people...
