I don't necessarily agree with at least some of your thesis, or would maybe interpret them differently, but I'm somewhat optimistic about some changing views on urban development, particularly in cities that are plagued by decades of bad patterns. To that effect, I'm optimistic that there will be a return to downtown areas in cities that have been crippled by suburbanism, and those cities will start actually trying to realize the economic gains from that, prioritizing cosmopolitanism instead of the sort of isolationist myopic hellscape they've been rollin with for 50 years
