Abstract
Housing tenure has often been taken-for-granted as consisting of dichotomous tenure types of owning and renting. This article critiques the owning-renting dichotomy through the lens of housing finance. It critically engages with three housing research programs wherein the owning-renting dichotomy is deep-seated: (a) the bundle of rights thesis, (b) comparative housing and welfare research, and (c) the ideology of housing. For each of them, the article first provides a brief recapitulation of the literature. It then explicates how they are constrained by the owning-renting dichotomy and why abandoning this dichotomy is necessary to transcend their limitations. Based on this, the article reveals a dialectical relation between owning and renting - the binary-oppositional attributes of owning and renting can be resolved with the changing relation of the occupant to financial markets. The article further proposes to re-conceptualize housing tenure as a relation of the occupant to financial markets and discusses the implications for reframing housing studies.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
