If you could design your new building so that it was invisible to everyone but you, there would be no need for these mind of regs. Unfortunately every built structure haas an impact on those around it.

I am not wild about the inertia that governs the design review process, but I don't think I'd want there to be no oversight, either.

Old cities are beloved not due to adherence to a ridged design, but rather a mishmash or difficult styles which add character and enhance their surroundings.
