The principal defect Owners allege violates this warranty is that Blume's building code violations will enable fire to spread more rapidly between units than it would in a properly constructed building. While we acknowledge the seriousness of this problem, we do not believe that it constitutes a defect which "profoundly compromises" Atherton as a dwelling, or makes it unfit for habitation within the meaning of Stuart. Although Atherton may be less safe during a fire than it should be, on an everyday basis it can still be used for its intended purpose.
