Presumably the argument would be "because otherwise the landlord accepts legal responsibility". Which means that if your apartment burns down with 3 guests in it he not only is not covered by fire insurance (that contractually puts occupancy limits because of legal demands on them), but actually has to pay for the ambulance and medical costs because "he created an unsafe situation". So "why would people complain" ... it's a matter of perspective and maybe ideology. I would say the other reaction is easier : make sure you have 5 google accounts. One is email and you DO NOT use it for anything even remotely business related.
