David Alpert: And even in the optimistic scenario, this greater density will only make a very small dent in affordability and do so only over a long time horizon. In the meantime, IZ produces a small amount today of what we want to see more broadly in the long run.

Okay. So an incremental change that will have a small effect on housing costs for all (allowing greater density outright) is not worth doing, but an incremental change that will have a small effect on housing costs for a small slice of residents (IZ) is worth doing?

This doesn't seem to be logically consistent.
