@Zac -
A less snarky and more meaningful comment might have been: "Based on the books I've read, I've seen that phrased used before - perhaps the student has been doing some reading outside of class?"
or "I don't really think it's an "incentive ceiling" - philosophically, and based on the evidence, rent control seems to create all sorts of innovative solutions to "route around the control". That is to say, it creates incentives to look for loopholes and exploit grey areas.
