Which definition? Some people just made up their own. The definition I used in the above comment was “a city where you can travel everywhere within 15 minutes”, no more, no less. Also, I kind of ignored walking times.
Early plans [for Neom] proposed an underground railway with 510-kilometre-per-hour (317 mph) trains that could travel from one end of The Line to the other in 20 minutes.
I meant to refer to that thing. I should have said 20 minutes, not 15, and I shouldn’t have used the specific phrase “15 minute city” to refer to a city that can be traveled anywhere within 15 minutes. Mea culpa.
Back to the point, though: none of that changes that a Line is mind-bogglingly stupidly bad compared to just a basic grid.
I think… you may need to look up the definition of a 15 minute city before expanding on this comment.
