I would like to share your attitude but fear the consequences when millions seek a place in the wilderness. What do you do when you arrive and your neighbor asks you to move on because he wants to be more alone?

I want to be more alone too, so I'd probably not get to the point where I was close enough to have them tell me to go away.

However, most people probably wouldn't like the actual wilderness. They want a big country house somewhere and when they find out they need to build it themselves they'll go back to the apartment blocks.

One reason I'm a fan of making cities less objectively terrible is that more people will live in them and be even further away from my hovel.
