It’s a huge concern, because it inhibits the natural flow of families being together, and creates what is effective a modern version of slum housing. Kitchens and such facilities are communal, rooms are very small and personal. In some case the bathrooms are also communal. It is not good for people to spend much of their lives living in such spaces - not in the kind of society we and our ancestors grew up in anyway. I think also, ultimately this leads to a spread of infections and airborne disease because of how these towering building s are constructed, and how people must live in them. No green space, no gardens, - communal gym, kitchen, and recreational space. No pets of any kind. No opportunity to create a family unit. They are fine when you know you’ll only be there for a couple of years for studies - lifetime accomodation? Not so much.
