Great, just when we have a once-in-a-generation chance to combat noise pollution (one of the major things making cities unlivable), we go ahead and NOT do that.

Can we please not? ICE cars already make basically no sound at low speed aside from tire noise.<p>And in case that this is really deemed necessary can we at least have a conversation about phasing it out as people get used to quieter cars?
