    It’s not unreasonable for people to object to their communities being turned into giant dormitories.

    Counterpoint: yes it is. All communities are full of houses that are empty for a lot of the time while people go to work elsewhere. My road in inner-city London is exactly like this. The ‘dormitories’ meme is just another NIMBY talking point, I’m afraid, which makes no sense at all. What are we going to do, forbid people to work outside of ‘their communities’ (whatever that means)?
