Because in a decade there will be a new fiber standard for home Internet that will require the streets to be torn up. In two decades the jobs that made the city center will leave because without roads there's no place to lay new infrastructure. In three decades the nogs will ruin the place making it an abandoned experiment. 50 years later your dream of a walkable city will be bulldozed to make way for storage centers and businesses that will have parking lots, because while you bitch and moan about everything without having the slightest clue how city planing works, others who are smarter than you and actually have work to do will get it done despite your stupid ass making it harder because you want a "walkable city".
Before this there was trams, and you see the scars of those tracks everywhere, and horse bridges are now apparently racist. Fuck you.
