I don't know much about it as well to be honest other than bits I've seen and I opted for avoiding the area pretty soon after. If it is, its ultimately self-limiting. Other cities around the world have happily embraced urban density and its done wonders for all concerned. Nice new affordable housing. Landlords make more in quantity not necessarily margin. Commercial ventures have more customers and employees. SF is really weird to me and I can't quite grasp the motivations for not densifying in a meaningful way other than a rather simplistic "Keep the charm" kind of motif. That seems to trivial as an explanation to me, but other stories always invoke long circuitous logic that boarders wayyy to heavily on the Immigrants=bad speak without actually invoking it for my tastes.
