My only tenant that lost their job was already on Section 8 so they just ended up getting more assistance.

Many landlords weren't as lucky. And there were definitely some tenants who never lost their jobs that gamed the system and just stopped paying rent as well. I don't know what the endgame on that decision was but if you're not going to bailout the landlords (forbearance isn't a bailout since those delayed payments are still due eventually) then you at least gotta let them get their properties back so they can find tenants that can or are willing to pay.
