There are reasons. The question becomes if those reasons are important enough for SE to allow other players to be blocked from also owning because a small percentage of players have multiple houses.

Keep in mind that taking away houses from players that currently own them does not make houses appear only where needed. Taking away multiple houses owned on Gilgamesh by a single player does not add those houses to Balmung or Mateus, where competition for a house appears to be the greatest. That will always be a problem because SE can't control what worlds players choose to play on, they can only control which worlds players cannot make new characters on or transfer to.

There's no need for any housing, there is only player desire for it.

That doesn't mean that it shouldn't be part of the game. Many players wouldn't end up happy with a space that's interior only, which is part of why apartments don't solve anything except for those who are only looking for a place to store their indoor furnishings. .

That would depend on SE.

If you want to see what is possible with execution, there are other MMORPGs with instanced housing that can offer examples. It doesn't mean SE would copy those systems in part or in full.

I would love to have RIFT Dimensions in FFXIV, sans the cash shop housing item loot boxes. There were still other ways to get housing items (vendors, creature drops, seasonal events, etc.) but some of the more popular items were only in lootboxes.
