Depends on how one looks at it.

For me, personally, I'd much prefer if it is walkable to the nearest public transport instead of having to drive there and park at its Park N'Ride or a nearby carpark and pay its fee on top of the commuting fares on the usual workday. I'm doing this right now from my current place in Taman Seputeh, but once I move in to a project close to the MRT station in a few years time, I don't have to worry about where to park my car anymore and spend extra just to park at those carparks.

But different people have different requirements. Some don't mind this pattern because they need to fetch their kids from the nearby daycare after work or spouse, etc.
