Yeah, if we could somehow turn all the cow pastures into soybean farms or whatever and live with water friendly lawns, it would definitely ease the pressure on the water supply
And if we concentrated populations in those large cities like SF that are close to agricultural centers it vastly increases efficiency of distribution of crops.
NGL I'm not sure how much denser you could really make SF without basically levelling it and starting from scratch. The streets are already crazy dense
SF absolutely needs to grow "up" to accommodate more housing. So many single family houses that could be replaced with multifamily dwellings if not for the power weilded by outspoken homeowners who bought 20 years ago and now own a $1.6 million bungalow.
How fucked up is it that a bunch of drunk extremely online nerds could probably craft better, more efficient, more humane policy than literally 90% of people in office?

Thing is it's all artificial scarcity when it comes to housing. There's a lot of dumb NIMBY zoning laws and a lot of capacity for public housing.
And the traffic problems can be alleviate with robust public transit.
