Sure a 15 minute city means there will be some areas you won't be able to drive to anymore. So what? You'd be able to walk to them in <15 min. Nobody is going to stop people from driving out of town to go camping.

Personally I prefer cycling and have no issue carrying around groceries or other bulky items. I'd even go further than 15 minutes. However, I'm not sure that this is the right choice for everyone. I'm happy to share the road with automobiles and I enjoy my time on the bicycle.

From a good faith perspective, I'm not sure why it has to be a divisive either/or.

The bigger issue in my view is the compulsory nature of the program and how it plays into a larger, more concerning agenda. It isn't unreasonable to view this as trial balloon for the well documented agenda advanced by the WEF.
