I mean, I'm on board with the fuck-cars reasoning, but also recognize that we'll never make it happen except by our own extinction. And we're speedrunning that shit. Let's take whatever improvements we can realistically get, be it cars or whatever else, and hit what's left of Earth's ability to support life as comfortably as possible. If that includes running over fewer people by using R2D2 to cart us around vs our own monkey brains... cool! If it's something better, extra cool! I'll take progress wherever I can get it.
