I'm honestly not that stupid but it kinda seems like that would be the least frustrating layout.
All the streets in NYC are numbered, none are known by any name. After a while that begins to feel tedious.
Numbered streets are great.
I'm glad someone likes them I guess.
Hi. I grew up in a city with named streets. One street can have four names depending on where you're at on it. You've never had to deal with directing someone down a city full of that, apparently.
On the other hand, we have an area with lettered streets. L comes before M, N, O, P, etc. If you're on F and need to get to C Street, you know you need to go up 3 blocks. Meanwhile, if you're on Johnson and need to get to North York, you have to know that it's the same street and changes names in 7 blocks.
