This is the beginning of the end for single-family houses (it's a good thing).

Regardless of how you feel about single family vs. duplex - this will create too much selection pressure towards duplexes. Only the ultra-rich will be in single-family houses.

On that note - I'm curious, would it be legal/constitutional to have national zoning laws? Are there currently national zoning laws?
