Why does “unhoused” connote a temporary state and “homeless” an intrinsic one? Why is it any more people-first? Both are combinations of two roots that are respectively synonyms - “house” and “home” have essentially the same meaning in this context, as do “un-” and “-less”. I think the far more likely explanation is the typical euphemism treadmill: “homeless”, a neutral description, is perceived as a slur precisely because the people it describes are social outcasts, and so people wanted to stop saying it. Then stretched justifications for why “unhoused” is inherently less offensive were come up with after the fact.
