Well, I think you're being overdramatic here, but I digress. People sure like to dissect things word-for-word on message boards.
But, I do strongly believe that unless you're in the suburbs for monetary reasons, there's little reason why one would choose to live that far out.
Inner City: Aside from the eased commuting headache, there's simply more cultural venues to visit, more entertainment outlets central to the city core, more restaurants, more diversity - especially with people! So many more interesting types live central to things, or so I've found... and that doesn't just include Calgary, it also includes other cities that I've been to, including living in Auckland. And no, entertainment outlets are not just big-ass mainstream movie theatres, which seem to be a signature development of the suburbs these days. There's small venues and undiscovered places that need to be explored which are, safer to say, usually downtown. But alas, I think those points have already been made fairly evident in this thread.
