It's important to reconsider other aspects of urban design as well, though. "lol, just add more people" won't work any better than "lol, just add more cars" did if taken in isolation.
Walkability, public transit, green spaces, close-proximity shopping and services, and so on all need to be considered. Otherwise you end up with exactly what already doesn't work but now with more people.
That's implied when people are talking about proper urban design.
It's extremely dangerous to assume that.
