We can certainly guess that person who thinks "Vision Zero" is actually "Zero Vision" isn't great on details.

So I provided them in another post ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47242382 ). Does that change anything in your attitude towards the Zero Vision policies?

The data shows that these policies have comprehensively failed in Seattle, SF, and Portland. They did not result in a decrease in deaths through the use of traffic engineering. There are likely multiple reasons why that happened, but that's beside the point here and should be a subject of at least several PhD theses.

Yet these policies measurably worsened the average quality of life by increasing congestion, and lengthening the average commutes.

So given these data, what should be done next?
