I don’t know…maybe it’s just me, but at some point, space can just be too big.  
Where you might have been a cog in the corporate wheel in a former job; wouldn’t you just feel like a number in the system?

Devil’s advocate: Once something gets big enough, it can just start developing sub-cultures of an appropriate size. If the people in charge know what they’re doing, they design for this.

All sorts of things work at different scales; they just have different needs. Cities versus towns versus… hamlets?
