You can interpret anecdotal data however you see fit - I'm not going to run a survey to validate the hypothesis either way.
That said, I think you'd be foolish as a potential investor to not consider that AirBnB appears to have some unresolved platform issues that could create opportunity for a competing product to make inroads. And while the voices we hear may well be the loudest ones, they can still be influential in driving change, positive or negative.
