I was simply answering the "stupid question" part, so there's that.

...except they are not. What you're in favor of is no cities. Not gonna happen.
@Andres4NY @ECEC
Cars and trees in the inner city are a combination of problems.
I did leave one tree problem out: they grow.
When their roots are surrounded and covered by concrete, the concrete buckles. So do the streets. Unfortunately, city streets are specifically for cars.
@ECEC
Any city manager could tell you everything wrong with having trees downtown.
Birds get into them and when they're nesting, they attack anybody walking by
Birds also shit on the cars parked under them, and most drivers look for shade to park under
Bugs get into them and attract birds when birds aren't nesting
Trees drop sap, which also ruins a car's finish
city workers have to spend time on the clock keeping the leaves picked up off the ground
Yeah, the drawback is that the algae don't provide shade.
