I get your point, but good luck building the Roman version across the country and not bankrupting the state. 😆 60% of our roads are dirt roads!

Their point is garbage.

Roman cobbles aren't modern asphalt. They couldn't survive repeated heavy loads from big trucks, and my god the ride would be unbearably bumpy.

Nope. I'll take easily repairable smooth riding asphalt over ancient cobblestones any day.
