Lmao, no.

It’s because roads get built first because they’re cheap and flexible. It costs nothing to build a dirt road but a bulldozer and a bit of time.

Transportation networks start with desire paths with take the form of cheap and easy roads, then they’re expanded and improved upon or abandoned as time goes on demand calls for it.

Eventually public transit gets added and then eventually trains get built.

Congratulations on being a semi-outdoor cat, how often do you go out to the country, vs how often do you walk around the block before returning to your echo chamber?
