I'm thinking Engels. Responsible, reliable, motivated, has money, knows how to manage it and is incredibly generous (he died with more than he gained from the factory sale despite supporting the whole German/communist underground in London).
Also who'd be worst? Would Marx ever catch up with his chores? Would Che disappear suddenly for months at a time?
(Not a very serious question obviously)
well sure, i think they could learn, and obviously rosa's political work was no less valuable than theirs. but the question was, which theorist would make the best roommate. and the differences in practical knowledge reproduction in europe between men and women at the time would have certainly rendered an amount of immediate (but correctable) helplessness from men that were used to all domestic labor falling under "women's work."
