You are saying the only way to lower the price is to build more housing than is needed. Which is an insane way to plan how to effectively house everyone

Not the only way, but having enough units for people, instead if people dividing their living room with a sheet to make a rentable space (like Vancouver). The problems we have is no surplus, actually a high negative, that needs to get closer to zero.
