This is a fine example of the unintended but perverse side-effects that are created by state-assisted suicide. We basically offer death as a "solution" to a housing problem. The system settles into a new equilibrium that depends on a certain percentage of the population killing themselves because their situation is too miserable to cope with, thus creating just enough space for other people -- which then reduces the pressure on politicians to actually solve the housing problem.
