Well people do blind dates or get set up by friends or both, so maybe that counts? And the OP managed to make a third-party hotel reservation fine.

I think the actual issue was not the Airbnb rule but that it makes little sense that the OP was unable to cancel at no charge for a reasonable reason an hour after making the booking (and plenty of time before the stay).
