That's exactly the issue being debated, or have have you not read the first paragraph?:
> the Supreme Court will decide whether it constitutes cruel and unusual punishment to fine, ticket, or jail someone for sleeping outside on public property if they have nowhere else to go.
The point being argued is "if you don't have adequate shelters, then you can't remove people from public spaces". If you do have shelters and these people have other options than, yes, you can force them from public spaces into community provided shelters.

The issue debated is whether people can camp if there is no shelter space. In my post, I mention the scenario that there is shelter space, but the people who are camping cannot use it based on their behavior.
