Maybe. This reminds me of the Asimov short story "It's Such a Beautiful Day". Teleportation became so normalised in this fictional society that using a regular door and going outside is seen as deviant.

walking is a nice way to experience your surroundings at a gentle pace that might allow for surprising, inspiring interactions or discoveries

or even the chance to practice smiling while greeting a stranger

Only maybe in US, more probably only in some weird micro bubble you live in. Otherwise all you write is false obscure projection. Maybe go outside more? Its pretty healthy also mentally
