I get the point you're making, but to the facts, that is quite literally how many subdivisions work, and least in the western US.

In my corner of Michigan, there seems to be a very clear dichotomy on this:
- Private developer builds a sprawling subdivision with plenty of nice wide roads and lots. (So a very large area of pavement per tax-paying property.) And turns the whole thing over to the city/village/township, to be their public road budget black hole forever more.
- Private developer builds a very compact little development, with houses (or condo's) packed in like sardines along a rather narrow and minimalist Private Road.
