Sure I mostly agree. And the (cough) after V->V was a silly way for me to say "I mean PDX, of course").

However, I will also note that factors are 2 are far larger than the ones that often make or break social or economic plans. So saying "that's only 2x the density of Cascadia" is not necessarily very encouraging.

Yeah but Germany also didn't start developing it's rail network at the current density did it? Good pubic transportation enables density.
