I'd say that the housing crisis is broader than that, but also agree with you. Even if you solve an inventory problem, there also exists a "commute to work" problem, whereby if I'm not rich enough to live near work then I drive over an hour or take complicated public transport (in the US). That far out, things also get more expensive and inconvenient, which creates another class-based issue. I have empathy for the people solving these problems, because inevitably they're going to screw someone.
