B2L has been a great inflationary measure pushing the cost of "affordable housing" out of reach or many, if not most buyers.

And HMG is very aware of this, hence all the changes to Housing Benefit to try to curb the inflationary increases in rents in the B2L sector. And perhaps to make it less and less attractive to "investors" who aren't "investing" anything apart from their own self interests.
