Quite the contrary. Autohagiography wants good deeds to have transactional difficulty, to involve the transfer of perks from those who have to those who have not (a perk only being legible if there are have nots with regard to said perk).
Because such transactional difficulty is how one redeems vested ego-value, and thus is redeemed. It has to be transactionally difficult, it has to be a sacrifice, to justify why it is so uncommon as to be autohagiographically notable.
The problem of everyone being housed is not that it is more difficult than handing money to someone. We've far too much discourse about how it would cost less to house everyone than to keep so many unhoused.
Problem of everyone being housed is that it would eviscerate one's own housing of perquisitive ego-value. That one is housed is a receipt of one's goodness, only legible if others are unhoused, dispossessed. Housing everyone would render it meaningless in assessment of one's goodness as a person.
