WOODEN BUILDINGS

I don't think sprinklers in each wooden house is excessively complex. No doubt, a governance system that orders sprinklers at scale could afford to have ubiquitous wooden house sprinklers. That doesn't happen now. Wooden houses don't keep in the summer heat like concrete. It's easier to forego AC in a wooden house. Concrete uses tons of energy to create, and wipes out mountain ranges. Wooden houses have important aesthetic qualities for a species that doesn't live by bread alone. Charring wood prior to building with it keeps it from burning. Wooden houses are important to promote and value. Putting wooden houses down is unnecessary, and makes about as much sense as putting down fossil fuels and advocating for a switch to renewables.
