Filtered permeability (which is what I think you're referring to re: barricades) does itself help you live without a car nearby. It cuts down on through traffic for cars in those areas which makes it safer and more comfortable to bike there.

Exactly, why should cities optimize for people who have to drive into them, vs people who already live and pay taxes there?

Examples?
I live in Europe, 15-min cities are quite standard here so I don't really grasp this American issue.
Some cities are doing this, but they're not the ones attempting 15-minute cities.
