There’s a lot you can legitimately criticize the City for, but deliberately tying to make driving worse is not one of them. Come on.
these are all good points. Anecdotally, my driving experience is far worse than it used to be, but it's most likely just due to a very noticeably larger population which there's probably only so much a city can do about that.

I borderline was going to suggest the city scrap the playground zones and instead, I login today to see that they're installing them city wide in residential areas. Awesome.
