What I'm saying is that people have been living close to their friends and relatives since there have been human societies, as a rule. That has been the default for humans. It's the last hundred and fifty years or so in which that changed, and maybe especially the last few decades. It'd be like if people started sleeping during the daylight, and then somebody said "hey, I just realized there are benefits to sleeping at night, so I built an app to help you do that."
