Yeah it incentivizes goverments to keep housing construction constrained as well.
I can't say it enough we need to build more housing and invest in rapid and accessible transportation, the later helping to smoothen development more uniformly and hence smoothen cost distribution as well, which favors a more uniform distribution of business operations as well. You need density, but a good combination of residential and commercial buildings, not concentrate everything in the core.
Of course you have the left and right both complaining about increasing density; one complains about gentrification in the city-center's periphery, the other complains about wanting to keep their neighborhood full of yards, pools, two-cars per house, and white people further away.
