There are reasons that apartments cost more in the cities. Sure, I considered getting a half-price place in Avendale, but in the end I saw the extra 500k for a place in Fairhaven to be a long-term investment. Likewise, whenever I go to Yrkanis to conduct business in my guild hall, it's only a short walk (~50m) from the Karavan TP.
That said, I think that Cities of Intuition exists solely to show how not to design a region. The other three regions make NH reasonably accessible, especially since the Pyr NH moved near Cerakos Gate, but CoI likes to stash their NH stations in inconvenient places while putting enough navigational impediments around to make trekking between cities more of a hassle than one would expect from the distances involved.

Do not assume that you speak for all just because you are the loudest voice; there are many who disagree that simply have no desire to waste words on you.
