I lived in something that would qualify as a micro-unit, for years, and my quality of life was very high. Lots of people would trade space for location and amenities.

Exactly. It if helps with costs, folks will take it. For many folks out there, if they could have their monthly costs cut, which micro units would make possible, and in the mass quantity needed in "X" city... it would do wonders for that person.
The issue with these places is the lack of supply, to many folks wanting to live in certain cities, and if micro units can help the demand, I don't get the opposition to them.
Tons of folks are for the lifestyle, and as mentioned, amenities. Not many folks need 3000-4000+ sq ft.
