Most people have great pleasure in owning and driving a nice car. The ones that do not are a minority. There are many reasons why cars (and trucks) are desirable and sought after possessions. It would be a logical fallacy that because you currently do not want one, people should build major projects with no regard to car parking.

Most Americans don't live in a skyrise. If you love your car and only have one, buy a place in Brooklyn with a garage: city living is not for you.

Such folks don't tend to live in skyscrapers.

Too many people though love cars. Some cities are banning cars. Of course buses, trains, delivery vehicles still exist.

Wide open places like US and Canada sure but many places are super crowded. Southern China, Lagos Nigeria, Tokyo, Mexico City. They're all implementing trains for a reason. There is just no way for cars to move if packed into a small area with hundreds of thousands of people.
