And then it depends on the context of the conversation. There are countless threads of naiive people arguing that we can get rid of all cars, and when they do, people bring up the edge cases.

Going to a cottage once a year still requires a car.

    Going to a cottage once a year doesn't require you own a car for the whole year.

    In fact, if you only truly need a car a handful of times per year, it's vastly cheaper and less hassle to just rent it

    Precisely. And if someone can't be convinced not to spend thousands of their own money on a transportation method in order to cover less than 1% of their trips, I don't think they can be convinced at all.

    Okay, if you're going to keep arguing that, it's time for you to fucking cite some.
