Many people spend their whole lives in cities like New York never owning a car.
Its not absurd to expect Americans to never own cars it's absurd to expect it to happen before you built cities that enable car free lifestyles. People like to frame it as chicken and egg but it's not, density and lifestyle always follow transportation infrastructure.
