It also sounds like from early 2021 info that came out in the Skyrise Cities thread, that CMLC had some odd suggestions such as the arena should have seats spaced further apart to account for permanent social distancing, like covid measures was going to be a permanent thing. Even if that was to be done, clearly it would be such a drastic reduction in seating that it wouldn't be practical for the Flames, and the city itself to go forth with that.

This is an arena that's being built to hold major sporting and entertainment events. How it functions on the outside was always going to be a bonus to it, not the main feature. Expecting anymore more beyond that means one has a big disconnect on the purpose (as well costs) of this project.
