Yep. Plus lowest common denominator design = probably bad.
If anything, I'd say interventions are better suited to the "sociotropic" side. That is, explain to neighbours that aesthetic preferences are actually quite diverse & get them thinking about advantages to having diverse cityscapes.

I'll admit I'm still somewhat skeptical of the potential for "good design" as an intervention, but the idea that a LOT of the underlying motivation is aesthetic seems pretty solid.

FWIW, I think this is clickbait & Rs aren't understanding this survey Q the same way it's being presented.
