Someone mentioned the last mile problem, and someone else responded as if it doesn't exist based purely on their own situation (right now). I'm pointing out that it does exist with my situation as an example (right now).

That's all. Should we pretend like there's no last mile problem?

Maybe in some ideal world, the last mile problem could be solved purely with public transit. We don't live in that world. Investing as of we live in an ideal world is foolish.

If one approach is effective for more people, that's great, but shouldn't we also invest in solutions that fill the gap?
