Option 3 (sane)

Surprised. I would have thought you would have voted FP.

Also, huge misuses of real estate crop over time, since moving usually results in a massive rent increase. So the couple whose children are all grown stay in their massive 3 bedroom, while families with children sit on waiting lists.

Well, that particular problem only applies if you don't have general rent control. If all rental housing is rent controlled a move to a smaller flat will not give a rent increase, but a decrease.

Who the heck is voting Option 1?

Non-Anglos maybe? Rent control is not so universally vilified outside the Anglosphere. I am used to taking it for granted (not that I voted in the poll).

Probably also some American leftists.
