You missed the point. Lots are smaller for only one reason: to offset the cost of government tax and regulation in the planning and buidling of housing developments. In states with property taxes, the state and counties will try to maximize their tax revenue, too, by increasing the units in apts. or homes. If the government reverted back to 1920’s control of producers, our world would once again be populated with variety and color.

You would be surprised at how many request only a minimal yard for their house. Just big enough for the dog to go poop in.

“our world would once again be populated with variety and color.”

Our neighborhood used to have different colored houses. Yellows, greens, pinks.

Now we have different shades of brown and grey.
