I don’t disagree with you. I wonder at which point is it unethical to build more office space if the Bay Area has determined it prefers peace and quiet. Jobs can then relocate to places that want growth.

If you want to advocate for a state law that requires all new commercial development be accompanied by corresponding residential development close enough that workers can commute by transit or bicycle, I would totally support that. I think it would be a hard sell, but might be doable.
