Ok, so I imaging that the fact I heat my home with far less bill that my ancient and smaller apartment was a figment of my imagination...

What you do not understand is that we do not live since today for today, we do not build new cities and houses from ground to the ceiling today. We need to evolve and we can evolve far more in the countryside as a result while in theory tall buildings are more efficient than single houses, in practice we have more "newer" individual houses and less newer tall building so in the end the practice is the opposite. Perhaps you do not even understand why speed trains does not gain traction in the USA but works well enough in French because of the urbanization level of certain area those density are so high that the cost of "pierce" the urbanized area is so high nobody try to sustain. Essentially you study too much the details that you loss the sight of the big picture, a common mistake these days.
