Look, its simple. You are either on the side of the fence where you want/need a fast transport, and hence you own and use a car, or you don't. Each side then downplays the other's arguments and propel theirs. Its obvious also in this discussion. Realistically, IMHO the switch from private transport will happen no sooner than there is a real, proper, easy to use at any time on a whim alternative that is same cost (ideally cheaper due to subsidies) than owning and using a car. Things are improving greatly, but we're not there, practically anywhere (apart maybe from Netherlands and Denmark, but even that not for many use cases). Proof - people driving everywhere.
