However, renting an aircraft to an unqualified pilot would seem
irresponsible.

Yes, but how much checking would you expect or tolerate. Would you expect
the FBO to examine your license, medical, and logbook before every flight?
Would you expect them to rent to you for a one week trip if you would be
out of passenger currency halfway through that week?

I would think that their insurance carrier would expect the FBO to have some
system in place to assure that the people they rent to are legal and
qualified to fly the aircraft that are being rented. I further believe that
a jury in a liability case would be easily led to think the same.
