> You're repeating propaganda from the people who want rents to stay high.

Ok. Can you please show which cities get cheaper and cheaper as the density gets higher and higher?

Anywhere in the world? Ever?

The densest city in the US is Manhattan, also the most expensive.

This idea that building more density will decrease prices does not correlate with observed reality.

Tokyo. It continually rebuilds, rents are affordable to people who work there.

Manhattan does not build anymore, but people still want to live there, so it gets ever more expensive.

Prices are merely an indication of how many people want something but can't get it.

Your observations on density only apply is building is highly restricted to keep people out. And if building is suppressed everywhere, dense places will just be the indicator of future rises to come in less-dense and less-desirable places. Just as we have seen recently.
