You are assuming that Airbnb hosts give up their entire place. I never been to any Airbnb where that was the case, it is anecdotal evidence but without presenting the numbers you can't really make that argument. On the other hand I was in CS hosts apartment alone. This is also just anecdotal evidence, but I think in this topic these details have nothing to do with outcome of that voting.

Of course some Airbnb hosts give up their entire place. There's a big button to limit your search to just those properties.
Airbnb shows 667 out of 918 rentals in Santa Monica are for the entire place, i.e. no host present. The vast majority of rentals there won't have an owner present.
