  But why? (semi-rhetorical, but that's exactly the discussion we're having here, whether people should be allowed a backyard coffee shop)

    Externalities. But I'm not a fan of the neighborhoods that have nothing but houses for miles. Gotta balance it a little more.

      Just directly regulate the externalities with measurable objective limits rather than ban all land uses but one.

        That's too complicated and prone to loopholes that cannot be closed afterwards
