Don’t forget it helps deter thieves as well. Smash and grabs, catalytic converter thefts, etc. Also if you have other vehicles like bicycles/motorcycles then you’ll definitely want them inside a garage vs outside where they’re visible and more vulnerable.
Depends where you live; large garages can be normal. Obviously not 60% of the space, but garages can seriously help protect vehicles and you from the elements. They’re great if you have severe winters, frequent rain, strong sunshine, and are now helpful for electric car charging.
@EnglishMobster@kbin.social was making the point that $12k is typically not enough for a down payment on a house. They did some rough math as an example showing that a $500k house would require a $100k deposit if you’re putting 20% down. You nitpicked this number. However $500k for a house is a very reasonable number, so I’m nitpicking your nitpick. I guess we’re all assholes here.
Anyway, USA median house price is $420k. For a 20% deposit you’d need $84k. Canada is worse than the US with an average house price of almost $670k.
Also depending on where you live that’s way too low. Median home price in California is almost $800k.

Almost like $500k is a good rough number used to make a point.

I think this is common, but it still doesn’t address the issues with using touchscreens and sight in emergency situations.
In an emergency, unlocking a phone, accessing the dialing app, then dialing the correct number on a touchscreen all add considerable friction.
What if you’re wearing gloves? What if the screen is broken? What if it isn’t your phone? What if your hands are wet? What if the fine motor control of your fingers doesn’t work well because you’re injured/cold/burned/weak? What if you can’t see well because of an eye issue or smoke…
Being able to tap an actual hardware button a few times can prove invaluable during these kinds of emergency situations.
