  • Ok, but wait. Why would there be no traffic? I know that near the middle/end of ep 2 she says how many millions died during the “transition”. And we have seen sparse roads like when she’s driving the scooter to the airport to fly the plane. But what keeps nagging at me is that stuff still needs to happen. People still need to go to the power plant to make power to allow the chef to cook your food and power your mansion. Someone still needs to mine fossil fuels for you to put in your bikes. Someone still needs to plow the roads in the snow and patch the potholes and make the vehicles that do those things and the clothes you wear and… even if it’s a hive mind, and happy people, someone still needs to keep the lights on the and the sewers working and all that creates traffic. Even if everyone knows how to do everything, there is still transit and shipping. I dunno. I like the idyllic Italian coast setup, don’t get me wrong, but I have been tossing around the rest of that for a while also.
