They seem to realize that not letting one household share wouldn't get
them many customers, while two households in one house they can claim
isn't allowed.

Is it really different?  One could certainly argue that it isn't, but then
the same argument could apply to all the units in a 20 story building.
Where do you draw the line and they seem to go by household.  Of course
is someone renting a room really different than someone renting a basement
apartment with it's own entryway?
