I moved over to Vivaldi from Chrome a few weeks ago. Chrome was seriously pissing me off; Vivaldi is a joy to use in comparison.

Sorry, didn't realise that, I've not got beyond emojis. Sarcasm/humour doesn't always translate well to the written word, so perhaps think about how it looks to other people who don't understand/have never seen your shorthand.

This rentcharge thing is something I've not come across before but, from the links I gave earlier, is not related to renting a property in the way we normally understand it. Also, it seems to be irrelevant as, according to the legislation, no new rentcharges can be created since 1977.
A leasehold property is where you purchase the property for a specific number of years and pay ground rent, i.e. you acquire a chargeable interest in the property. This is not the same as a long rental.
One of the problems of understanding all this is that the same or similar words have different meanings, e.g. lease and leasehold; rent and rentcharge. The other problem is that the whole manual is written in a very ambiguous manner for the lay person to comprehend.

SDLTM00280 gives definition of chargeable interest.
Meaning of rentcharge is at https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1977/30/section/1

If the FT had got this right then HMRC would already have been after the millions of long term renters for this tax. That they haven't speaks for itself.

SDLTM00260 is very clear that the tax is chargeable on the acquisition of a chargeable interest. A person renting a property under a simple tenancy agreement does not acquire any sort of chargeable interest in that property.

I gave you the link to the actual manual. Have a read and see if you agree with me.
It is, of course, ludicrous that renters with no actual interest in a property should be charged such a tax.

I think you may have misunderstood the use of tenant in relation to the Stamp Duty Land Tax. As far as I can see by reading relevant parts of the manual, it refers to tenants with leases who acquire a chargeable interest in the property, not ordinary rental tenants who do not acquire such interest.
