4) Not sure how much we want to optimize all urban planning for economic output and efficiency, especially when it's uncertain. "Hey we think it would be better to put an office here next to your house instead of a playground. No... we don't know... we just think so."

Econ and history dork here. Thoughts on agglomeration effects:

1) Effects are real, but we've got most of them already, ie Silicon Valley, finance in NYC, movies in LA. Think we would have an even more productive oil sector if workers in Houston could walk instead of drive?

[Moses Kagan @moseskagan]

The next thought in this chain is:

"How much GDP growth have we, as a society, given up by retarding agglomeration effects in our most productive cities?"

And the answer to this is "a material amount"... in other words, we're all poorer bc we prevent our cities from accommodating more and more productive people.

3) Probably lots of benefits for people in bottom and middle of the economic distribution from being able to get better jobs and having to spend less on housing, but that might not move the total amount that much.

@follard Last year on my birthday our family went out dinner at my favorite restaurant.

I took a 40-minute call with the lawyer working on our closing bc timing was short and she needed to be up to speed on major issues.

... Ofc we didn't end up closing until for another two months.

@cre_cashflow The real value here comes from details in other people's OMs such as... actual rents!
