but the point is that by not organizing it into a grid, drivers aren’t going to cut through a low speed local street, keeping those streets less polluted and safer.

That’s true of a tree style layout, but only that, and those have problems of their own. The example about moving aside for a car going through a narrow European street was something I’ve actually experienced.
