> If you traveled by car to meet someone vs walking, you were not losing anything. You may not be losing any bandwidth, but you are introducing a ton of latency. The time spent walking less the time it would have taken to drive is time I could have spent communicating. Also, without cars, many face-to-face communications just would not take place at all. Plus, I don't think it's accurate to say that walking doesn't come with it's own benefits. It might not strictly increase communication, but you do get more information about your travel if you take it at a slower speed (which you can talk about with whomever you're meeting).
