Polygon also seems to forget that SimCity 2000 is a 28-year-old game. I think I had a 200 MHz computer to play it on with mere dozens of megabytes of memory. To store and simulate such fine details was simply not possible at the time.

It originally came out in 1993, so you're looking at more like 16-25 MHz that it was targeted at

I played it on an Apple Performa 460. That's a 33Mhz 68030 with 4MB of RAM
