I've built a bridge 20 years ago. It was great, people could finally go from one side of the river to the other.

Everyday, more and more people started using that bridge.

In 2025, I've rebuilt the bridge twice as big to accommodate the demand of a growing community.

It's great and the people love it!

But some people are upset because you put the new bridge in a new location and now it's inconvenient for them?
Nah, they are upset because it brought more people, which increased the traffic...
