It feels like an admission of failure on the part of civil engineering culture.
Would it be a triumph of engineering culture to pave over the whole world?
No. There is a clear demand for a route here that has not been met. There is no demand for paving over the world.
Well, there’s also clear demand for not having any paved route through there.
Probably, just not a triumph for everybody else.
