This also depends on where you live, I'm gen z and I have a license (no car tho, saving money for it) but since I don't live in a big city a car's still important to get around (there is a mediumish-sized city ~15 min drive away, but I'm in australia so everything's real spread out)

Oh for sure. The ideal type curve settles at an appropriate level of usage, and spread out and small towns make sense for cars. Though there is the related view of lower density versus higher density living. Either way though there will be variation and the question is whether the emphasis is well measured.
