The terms "inflation" and "deflation" are used in the context of the amount of a currency in circulation, and in the wider financial context, they have little sensible meaning otherwise.

Given the context, "collapse" would be more fitting for clarity. Cheers.


Super interesting read. Think that a fair amount of inspiration can be taken from dense university and college campuses that essentially can be dubbed as sub-30 minute neighborhoods.

Looking at UBC in Vancouver, B.C. is a solid example, it is outside of the heart of Vancouver on the Western shore, yet has created a neighborhood that could be considered a 15-minute neighborhood.
