Did you hallucinate that I said anything like it or something? Obviously not every situation is solved by the same concept. Dense city centres -- sidewalks, bike paths, trams, human-scale infrastructure. Suburban areas -- abolish Euclidean zoning, European-style grid streets, buses, local light rail services. Inter-city transit -- high-speed rail. Smaller villages and towns -- regional rail. It's an issue that most of the developed world has solved.
Public transit is not supposed to replace cars altogether, but give people another choice. A transit system that is built well, operated well, and cheap, will reduce the reliance on cars, and make the streets safer for people or services that have to use cars.
