Law usually needs to be tailor to the specific facts of a situation. Here there is a clear difference in a building being used as a residence with a small and consistent set of people using it as opposed to a much higher volume of guests using it for a business purpose. Just think about the increased risk of accidents, fire, or crime introduced as multiple guests stay in a space: they will increase the risk of crime by bringing valuables in rotating shifts, increased risk of fire as some guests will smoke or bring faulty electronic devices; I could go on, but the point seems clear. Higher traffic use results in greater risk. These factual differences should be taken into account when writing an insurance contract (a form of "law") or regulation (also a form of "law").
