I think you're writing to my points here, not opposing them.

The winter tires bit is intended to draw a laugh, but if we were going to seriously consider it, I'm sure there are winter riding peripherals intended to make snow travel easier. We can substitute something of that nature for the purposes here, if you like.

As far as "one extra pass", the costs of taking that extra pass need to be accounted for, you know? It's not just some kind of abstract event that takes place without consequences, there are dollars and cents in equipment maintenance costs, man hours, additional street repairs, etc that all total some tangible figure as time passes - it's a number I suspect is much greater than you think, both in a vacuum and when included in the next tax hike/fee for the average resident.

The "today" paragraph is not really worth disputing, but I'll humor you and the readers. Snow generally accumulates as the season progresses, which I'm sure you know. Not having a giant pile of snow "today" is not a reason to put off a plan to combat the issue until a later day. Simply put, you would not use this logic in any other problems that may arise in your life, why use procrastination here?
