Renting but can't stay in room too much during the day

Is it just me or is it crazy that I came across a listing for room while I was looking for rooms for rent and In the description the renter was asking that whichever tenant is interesting to rent the room must have hobbies during the day and working most of the day so they aren't there most of the day. Is it just me or is it just crazy what they are asking especially if the tenant is paying for that room?
