Maybe we could use all the time, effort, and money spent on hostile architecture on shelter. Instead we throw resources into park benches that suck at being benches.

This is a nonsense take. We want park benches. We can't just redirect money for park benches to shelter. Cities aren't spending a bunch of money developing these things. Someone already designed it and they just pick it from the available options.

Besides I'd be willing to bet this is another art instalation, like the other 20 times Lemmy got it's knickers in a twist about a bench.
