How about shoehorning roads? Do they make more sense? Cause that’s what’s happening in a lot of places. My town had electric trams and big green spaces downtown in the 50s, but they’ve extinguished the tram lines and demolished the green spaces to build freeways cutting straight through historic neighbourhoods.

For planning future communities, sure. It does not make sense to try to shoehorn trains into many parts of the cities we have today.
why not

Of course not. If neighborhoods are being built with proper transit in mind, why would I ask for unnecessary roads…
not above ground.
