Density without walkability means non-stop traffic.

Walkable neighborhoods need retail businesses. We need to be able to do everyday errands by foot if we want to keep traffic to reasonable levels.

Without the parking I'd hope that municipalities be smart enough to sort that part out themselves.

Based on the way things are today, I can't make any assumptions that people in charge have any idea of what it takes to make a neighborhood ditch the car.
