No legal expertise, but the thing that struck me is Campos' extremely flawed analogy. If we want to make comparisons to rental cars, the hosts are the rental companies. There is no third party platform to compare to AirBnB.

how about something like Getaround? https://www.getaround.com
I was thinking the same thing -- this law is more like a hypothetical law requiring people who rent out their cars (not the renters themselves) to register with the city, and requiring Getaround to police that registration.
Not currently no. In an unrelated note, I have an idea that just might disrupt the automotive rental industry...
