And yet somehow many electronic door locks exist as commercially viable products. If Airbnb wants a turnkey solution, then a product that works like turning a key would be a big step.

Probably the best path to defray the risks would be for Airbnb to partner with lock tech groups like Kivo for API-side integration, and then gently suggest hosts use a partner-supporter lock. From my eye the available commercial products are just beginning to be “good” - for example, NFC locks entered the market this year, so smarthome locks can finally provide the hotel-room authentication experience, if not the hotel-room unlatching experience.
