If they wanted to make that "play other game" thing believable, they should at least align the time you can keep your house without entering it with the duration of a patch. I hate that "you know what, we don't put any long running content in the game this expansion, but if you actually leave for a few month as we advise, we'll take from you things you'll probably never get again." If you force me to stay subbed to keep house, you should also make incentives for me to keep playing during that time...
That's the catch, and it works very well, and the funniest thing is that people will blame the players instead of blaming the dev team

"just get rid of your house and take a break until next patch", and they'll proudly show that quote from Yoshi P saying that you are supposed to take breaks from the game in between patches (but yet you have to stay subscribed for your house, so breaks are okay as long as you keep paying eh)

aka

"let me get rid of the house i worked possibly years for so i can take a break, so then when i come back i can take a few years again to get the house again"
