As someone who always prefers shared housing, this does not sit well. It's not a cooperative, it's a dorm/hotel-like arrangement where laundry and cleaning tasks are outsourced to people who can't afford to live there. You're paying someone else to be your mom.
That model works for short-term arrangements where inhabitants are very busy (students and travelers), but this sounds like it will become a gentrified echo chamber of Rob Rhinehart disciples.
I agree with other commenters that cooperative ownership models, with sharing of costs/chores/equity/governance, are more accessible across the socioecomonic spectrum and tend to build stronger communities.
