    It’s illegal to live in a building that doesn’t meet code for residential units.

    Yes. The idea here is that relaxing those laws and allowing

    Stuff like natural light as well as adequate plumbing and ventilation are important.

    More important than having a roof over one’s head? A “free market” is when people make their own decisions about what’s important instead of the nanny state doing it for them.

    And they wouldn’t just be converting entire floors into single units.

    I guess if plumbing is an issue then you could get about as many units out of an office as bathrooms that the office floor could support.

    Humans need access to natural light

    Last time I stayed in a homeless shelter I had zero natural light. I was very, very happy to be inside, and nobody was forcing me to be there. I happily, eagerly, traded my natural light for shelter.

    Free. Market. Adults making their own choices. Humans do not, in fact, need natural light. And the fact that some building code makes that claim, does not make it an aspect of reality.
