The hotel's owner won't get hurt, but the poor housekeepers definitely will.
Owners will eventually be hurt; they care about profit and profit alone. Any superfluous costs will eat into the profit. This method would generate extra work - costing money, which would fail to resolve the issue repeatedly - costing money, until finally a replacement is ordered - costing money, then the maintenance guy has to ignore whatever other task and install the new furniture - costing money.
If only 10% of hotel guests did this at just half the rooms they stayed in over a year we'd collapse the global tourism economy and permanently shut down most hotels across the world.
