Good.

Maybe we'll start designing our cities and lives for shorter commutes, benefiting ourselves and our environment? Might just be me tho.

Absolutely. ignoring the issue is not going to help. not sure how we can pressure "city designers" (no clue how it actually works) to effect the change.

It's less city engineers and moreso American/Canadian laws that make it illegal to build objectively better (measurably safer/more efficient/better for peoples' health & stress/better for the economy/better for individuals' finances) infrastructure.
