Not been big walls.

Also, cities don't live in harmony with nature, unlike a giant line.

Right.

Unlike a huge silver wall that cuts off birds from their migratory pattern.

Oh, yeah.

Birds are going to be smacking into that thing.

It's so tough because like-

When I first heard of Wall City, right, I'm like, that's cool and cyberpunk and that's fun.

Then watching that ad where they take a city and cram it, I was like, oh, right.

That's dystopian.

That's Blade Runner.

Right.

And there's some bits of wisdom in that, like, denser urban developments are a lot easier on the environment than sprawling ones.

Sure.

There's probably a future.

One of the suggested futures of how we would build cities is that they are denser, which doesn't mean of low quality, but that there's a lot more space for nature.

No one is suggesting a giant wall hundreds of feet high and dozens of miles long.

That's an insane thing to build.

It's neat because it's like what Blade Runner would have lived in.

This is the thing.
