You can do the same justifications for landlords that you did for tutors and doctors though.

Kind of, maybe, if a high percentage of landlords was in it to "provide housing"...which I didn't see any evidence of in my decade and a half of renting.

I'm also a bit of a weirdo too. So, I had a lot more opportunity to see any of that. I probably moved over 10 times in my ~15 years renting because I couldn't stand the yearly rent increases they were trying to force on me and was stupid/stubborn enough (and well off enough) to vote with my feet.
