"Multistory" isn't the same thing as "high-rise." A five-floor Boston walk-up like I lived in for a month back in 2013 is a "mid-rise" at most, and plenty of density can be achieved with two- or three-story townhouses or even relatively small stand-alone houses on relatively small lots.
And okay, cool. No one's gonna make you, no matter how much you fantasize about someone trying. Literally all we argue for here in terms of housing is not having SFH be the only real option like it is in most of the US, so I'd politely request that you stop telling us wrongly what our position is.
