I’d say your list is a bit too short. Some more considerations (not comprehensive):
- Construction noise and seismic limits (nearby neighborhoods have been disturbed and experienced damage from blasting operations)
- Operating noise limits (ban on-site gas turbine generation, limit noise levels from cooling towers)
- Limit light pollution
Edit:
- Job protections and guarantees for workers displaced by automation





2013 seems like a decent pick. NVME drives just came into existence. Windows 7 was around and still had Windows Media Center. Fiber ISPs were around. Facebook was still centered around people you actually knew and wasn’t hyper-focused on serving you engagement-bait political bullshit. Not a trace of LLMs in sight. Google search still worked. Chrome hadn’t crippled adblock extensions. Porn was accessible without privacy-violating age verification. Content was less fragmented across streaming services.
Probably the roughest backslide for me would be going without Android Auto.
