How is it "not this discussion"? The general topic is about peoples' housing/aparment preferences and Rukmer's concerns are perfectly valid.

No, because it's such a small number of people it's not worth changing the whole of society for. Obviously, people with disabilities will be accommodated for. This one person having agoraphobia doesn't change the fact that society-wide we should be striving for more dense housing.

We literally change every building we touch to make “reasonable accommodations” for people who have handicaps.
