I have listened, I have learned, I have done the work, and still I have no idea why "unhoused" is better" than "homeless"
Focusing on the concept of "home" (and the lack of one) seems way more humanising and humanistic to me than the much more cold "house"
If the argument is that "homeless" has negative connotations & people use it as a pejorative to describe somebody they don't like, changing that to "unhoused" only serves to feed into the myth that people are homeless out of personal choice, or simply that homelessness isn't bad
