I was being facetious because in the hypothetical situation that homeless people are offered space in empty houses/hotels (which is a genuine thing I've seen suggested online as tourism has tanked), to write it off as the lack of accommodation not being the route cause of homelessness, misses the point that it would do some good.
"Well we could put homeless James here in this empty flat now no one will buy it, but he's homeless cause he has a drug addiction, so he should stay on the streets instead".
Of course this all ignores the point that DJ was joking, but then the first reply was serious anyway.
