I agree that the regulations should be tailored to the facts; it isn't appropriate to apply the same fire code to a small home (even where it is used for AirBnB) that applies to a large hotel building.

I would add in support of your argument that AirBnB should not have an economic advantage as a result of the different regulations. I do think commerce benefits from having fair and equal playing field / rules and suffers when companies can benefit from regulator arbitrage.
