The entire point is they don't have to be that way. You are quite literally missing the entire critique. The US's focus on cars and suburbia make it that way.
Without cars and suburbs cities would still be filled with soulless concrete and steel monoliths and trash
You're projecting what many poorly planned, car-dependant cities look like as being a basic fact of all cities.
You clearly need to go see the world. Take this as friendly advice.
