Both the title and the description of this sub-forum suggest strongly that its focus is Living Car Free (or car light), with 'cycling' being incidental, just as you suggest. 'Cycling' is just one alternative among several possible alt transport methods listed within this sub-forum's description.

Consequently, this sub-forum is framed in such a manner as to invite threads, posts, discussions that have nothing whatsoever, even obliquely, to do with cycling.

To my mind, this sub-forum, if it is to continue at all (a separate question), should be re-framed so that its focus is squarely on cycling -- in relation to attempts to LCF or LCL, just as we have sub-forums for Road, for Mtb, for Commuting and so on.
