There's a lot of bullshit in zoning to begin with. Why exactly can't we have mixed commercial and residential areas in suburbia? Slap some apartments on top of grocery stores, bakeries/restaurants, and shops; or is forbidden to have much of anything within walking distance of homes?
Because then you wouldn't need a car
Mixed use zoning is considered the gold standard of city planning, and it's why housing in Tokyo is so cheap comparatively
