> It's not "a residential area" in any sense.

When you say it is not a residential area in “any sense” and he finds a counterexample showing it is clearly a residential area in some sense then what you said is just untrue.



I'll play: we can find 1m² of road in the residential area that is obviously not residential. Now we have two counterexamples that conflict. Logically the premise is meaningless.


why make a new definition of residential? ottawa already has agreed upon zoning; you can find it here: https://ottawa.ca/en/living-ottawa/laws-licences-and-permits...

i dont see why a bit of road would justify honking the horn all night at an apartment building though. can you elborate on what changes when there's a road? the apartment building has people sleeping in it.
