While I agree cars themselves are just insanely expensive. A $25k car has you at $450+/month and this is if you have excellent credit.

We need other options besides cars and unfortunately they're the only option for many people.

Exactly. It was easy to partition them off.

Plot twist: the senior dev is the one who copy and pasted it after the junior dev's code didn't work

What in the hell are you on about. There is no one choosing to be homeless in LA who can afford a house in bumblefuck.

Per your other point there is nothing about the US housing market that is subject to natural supply and demand. It's a perverted tapestry of incumbents doing whatever they can to keep as many people priced out as possible.

We're not confused about why we do it. We're aware that doing it has negative outcomes.

No amount of prolix explanation excuses even the act of stereotyping.

It may be impossible to avoid stereotyping entirely which is why people practice not doing it. You call this "politically correct". I call it "behaving decently".
