if you don't know the Sidewalk Labs story, you won't know why so many people don't think network states will be a thing. Worth a read (though excuse the title if you're a tech bro offended by the term "tech bros")

I actually hadn’t followed that one. 

Im generally aligned with the Ezra / YIMBY movement. my wife worked in various NYC gov departments on private development and public housing so I’ve seen firsthand how local community boards exert undo influence in what gets built.

have you followed the California Forever project? the problem, at so many levels, seems to be state bureaucracy in the US that restricts building. See Ezra Klien's latest book for a good tour of this.
