- ericmay 3y agoSure but I was commenting on the "too big" argument which I think we can say is just factually incorrect at this point. To address your points I think it's a much more nuanced conversation. I'd argue that car-only infrastructure is actually a gigantic financial disaster as well but it requires additional examination.
