This might be true in some places, but only because land values are artificially high (due to the huge increment of development). Development of random towers stagnates markets and makes them regulatory-centric, not demand-centric.

2. If the increment’s too low, it wouldn’t spur much redevelopment anyway, since in most markets, developers won't foot the cost of demo’ing an SFH to build a triplex.

Also, “developers” is a very broad term. If I buy a house, tear it down and build a triplex to live in - am I a developer? I say yes. What we miss is how not allowing the next increment freezes out an entire class of investors or owners.
