She compares the functions of the home and the hotel, one of which is driven by demand and monetary compensation. You can walk in and out of the hotel as one pleases, but you cannot as much as place the dishes far away from where it is intended in the home.

This is the structure that gives us comfort in the house: We have faith that the place that we left things in the house shall remain there until we next move
