> Cities exist to make it easy for everyone in them to meet or work with anyone else as cheaply as possible

That is your rightful opinion, but it's not everyone's opinion. As someone who already lives in SF, I believe SF exists to stay nice and to not be overrun by more people/cars/traffic/pollution. In other words, the exact opposite of what you want it to be.

I guess some people were born in the right place though, in which case you can only commend them for having worked so hard to be born there.
