Somewhat? Overall I'd argue no. We know gig economy companies are most "profitable" (i.e., light less money on fire per transaction) in dense cities, so I imagine if they have a magic lamp they'd wish for people to live in denser environs generally.

But the inefficiencies of suburbia does in some ways resemble a "broken window" kind of economy - entire businesses and industries to fulfill needs that only exist because of an intense root inefficiency.

This is not unlike health care, where entire industries spring up around inefficiencies that arguably should not exist - and the industries will fight any systemic reforms that make them obsolete.
