If you consider the 5% of the poorest people, and consider the environmental cost of concrete, and how dense urban areas are stressful and that there needs to be more space between homes, then this totally makes sense.

What I'm more worried about is insulation, humidity, and other stuff like mold and durability. Also those types of house are not really viable if you can't sit down just outside next to it if there is too much noise or pollution.

So to be honest, it seems to be more a problem of urban planning than anything else, which can be political. A tiny house is interesting if other parameters makes it interesting.
