Absolutely not, having good rail infrastructure is an absolute bear necessity especially for the young, the elderly, and the disabled. But also people don't want to walk and bike everywhere, people (myself included) want to just jump on a train and relax.

How are you gonna get your stroller, walker, or wheelchair from the train station to your actual destination without a sidewalk?

I literally never said sidewalks aren't needed, you called public transport meanwhile a nice to have almost as if its a luxury and not a nesscesity. As if anyone could just walk everywhere or even want to.
