The bottom line is that local land-use laws are murky and problems with local codes are very difficult to predict and control for at scale - and that's the way existing homeowners want it.
It's interesting too that homeowners are such a powerful lobby, but without a single entity setting policy or giving talking points. It is, essentially, our culture. This is the way we want it to be. At least for now.
