In places designed before/not for cars you’d have places within walking distance like groceries. In the doctor scenario, we’ve had adult diapers for a long time. Your solution is you let them pee in your car?
And more importantly: it’s rare I post a rebuttal just for the person I’m responding to. Most people aren’t going to be swayed if they made an emotional argument. It’s for everyone else who sees it. Also me. It feels good to get thoughts out, sometimes.

And your solution is they shit themselves on public transportation?
I mean, I’m 100% for better public transportation and urban centers designed around walking, but let’s compare apples to apples here.
They didn’t make a straw man argument, they had a point. It’s a genuine issue and they deserve better than a flippant remark telling them to make grandpa wear diapers so he can piss himself on his walk from the bus stop.

Do you not understand how incontinence works? Someone who can’t hold their bowels or bladder wears diapers, full-stop. Sometimes this is due to an underlying issue that can be fixed, sometimes not. In either case the person has to wear adult diapers at least some of the time.
I don’t understand the point you’re trying to make. This person will be wearing diapers regardless of their transport. But you seem to disagree if they are being driven in a car. Therefore, would you allow an incontinent person to not wear diapers in your car, where they may have an accident?
My point is that the “piss in the car” comment was mean, thoughtless, and added nothing. If grandpa is incontinent, then he’ll wear diapers regardless of the car or the bus.
Your comment was either a.) implying that messing themselves in public was better than in relative privacy, or b.) if you use a car, grandpa doesn’t get to wear Depends.
Take your pick.
It might not be what you meant, but you were too busy being a jerk to notice that it’s what you said.

I don’t know why you’d argue with someone that thinks driving to Walmart is the best humans have to offer.
That really does sum up the Stockholm syndrome some folks have for fucked up America’s zoning code, doesn’t it?
It’s a very slow work day, honestly.
