IMHO, one very insurmountable reason is that you could never convince everyone that an urban center is worth living in. Quite a few people just don't enjoy that lifestyle.

I think you read that wrong. Paraphrasing what you said: Some people not liking to live in cities is an insurmountable reason that land in city centers is the only land worth living in.

First, your response doesn't make sense (and I think it's just because it's a misreading of the comment you replied to).

Second, I agree, there are people (myself included) that wouldn't enjoy living in an urban center. But that doesn't address what I think the comment was getting at, which is that land in urban centers is more desirable to a greater number of people than land outside of them.
