I can’t imagine myself being able to objectively cast a vote about funding my room-mate
So, I think I agree with this in the case of small houses. However, I’ve been part of large group houses with 18+ people in it, where I interacted with very few of the people living in it, and overall spent much less time with many of my housemates than I did with only very casual acquaintances.
Maybe we should just make that explicit? Differentiate living together with 3-4 other people, from living together with 15 other people? A cutoff at something like 7 people seems potentially reasonable to me.
