And if they (we) could think of it in this way we'd find it much easier to have a sensible business-type relationship with the other owners, to make decisions about maintaining/enhancing the value of our collective asset, as though we were directors of a company with a similar total value? (Even if we aren't ever likely to be Best Friends.)
* Even if x is a fraction, it's mostly going to be a pretty large fraction.

You'd think so, wouldn't you. It all comes down to differing perceptions about the nature of the 'asset'.
For some it's just that, an asset the value of which is to be maximised whilst any associated costs must be minimised in order to derive greatest profit.
For others, it's their home.
