but it's not an "occupant->occupant" relationship when one occupant is paying the other (aka "the owner"), with whom they have had no meaningful prior relationship, for the privilege of staying in this place for a day or two. That is by definition a stranger, and a landlord.

It would be, but AirBnB's legality and where it fits in are constantly under dispute. If the jurisdiction has short term rental laws that fit, then yes its landlord -> occupant, but many places that rent AirBnB are not legally allowed in the first place. The law is different than common sense.
