> doing more of that is insanity.

It is insanity because it’s being sprawled by the same developers and same regulations. Sure, fixing existing cities is better option but it’s unrealistic to do so, because you will need an authoritarian set of decisions that will never happen in a democratic government when 2/3 of your voters are home owners and already paid their life savings in that house and want the returns now, yeah, that fix will never happen, the realistic option is to use the already vacant land -that surprise surprise it’s actually owned by the crown!- with new sets of regulations to ease the crisis, or absolutely nothing will substantially change.
