...except they are not. What you're in favor of is no cities. Not gonna happen.

Cars and trees in the inner city are a combination of problems.
I did leave one tree problem out: they grow.
When their roots are surrounded and covered by concrete, the concrete buckles. So do the streets. Unfortunately, city streets are specifically for cars.
@ECEC
Any city manager could tell you everything wrong with having trees downtown.
* Birds get into them and when they're nesting, they attack anybody walking by
*Birds also shit on the cars parked under them, and most drivers look for shade to park under
*Bugs get into them and attract birds when birds aren't nesting
*Trees drop sap, which also ruins a car's finish
*city workers have to spend time on the clock keeping the leaves picked up off the ground
Yeah, the drawback is that the algae don't provide shade.

I was simply answering the "stupid question" part, so there's that.
