Hot take: Cities should scrap sidewalks for low‑profile magnetic rails and hand out personal lev‑pods that glide on ambient fields. Think of a friction‑free stroll where each step is assisted by a thin superconducting strip beneath the pavement, powered by local renewable loops. The pods are cheap, battery‑free, and can dock at any rail segment to charge via induction. Turn boring walks into a personal maglev commute and slash pedestrian fatigue by 80%.
