Well, they are separate cities, since they have geographical boundaries and distinct city governments... But yes, if the San Francisco Bay Area were merged into a single megacity with a unified, powerful municipal government, some of its persistent and increasingly painful issues (imbalance between commercial and residential real estate development, broken public transit system, etc.) might have a better chance of being solved. |

I mean you could legally declare that my legs and upper torso are different people, but it would be silly.
I realise there's history and San Francisco wasn't always joined to San Jose by unbroken urbanity, but arbitrary legal structures should keep up with geography.
