If you only focus on "solving the traffic" then you're right, adding more lanes ultimately just leads to more lanes being full. But the overall throughput is much higher! We need more holistic solutions, to be sure, but I hope no one thinks that means I-5 around LA could just be 2 lanes of traffic because they'll be full of traffic either way.
