Well, the idea is that you stop driving everywhere. Unfortunately, you have to make it inconvenient to drive if you want people to stop driving and we do want people to stop driving. I'm not gonna apologize for making you park a block over.

Research and studies into street design has already proven you wrong and I got a foot halfway out the door so I'm sorry I can't look them up right now, but nicer streets boost sales of local businesses. It turns out that when people are incentivized to walk more in an area, they tend to visit a lot more shops in that area. When a person can drive their airconditioned sofa box right up to the door of the store, they don't shop around at neighboring businesses. Sales go down as a whole.
