No it isn't. Anytime you make an fairly straight forward statement on any website you get some unnecessary contrarian response.

There are a bunch of downsides to doing any sort of outdoor activity in an urban environment. That is just a fact. It is noisier, often there it nothing to look at, repetitive (in a bad way) etc. etc.

Therefore I would not recommend walking as a form of exercise in that environment as the vast majority of people wouldn't enjoy it.

Whimsical writings by 19th century French poets aren't relevant to those facts.

> Maybe you're doing other people a favour by staying away from them, sheesh.

What an unnecessary comment to make. I never said anything about what you are like.
