Would you have a roundabout at every intersection?

We have 4 in a row.

There used to be traffic lights at each intersection along a 4 lane, fairly
straight, 55 MPH road. Now it's a curvy 2 lane road with a wide grassy
medium, 45 MPH between roundabouts (but nobody drives that fast), walkways
on both sides and gardens or flags or other design features at each
roundabout.

Traffic through the area is much smoother and quieter. I would never walk
my dogs along the old road, now it's fine. A lot more mellow, prettier,
etc. I still prefer the woods, but for our before bed mile or so walks, it's
fine.

Again, you are repeating what I have been saying all along. This has
nothing to do with making traffic moving more efficiently, it is just
to "calm" it (AKA slow everything down)

Great for the neighbors but they suck for drivers who are trying to
pass through.

Roundabouts are basically flat speed bumps.
