You joke, but if you ever talked to a homeowner about their lawn and heard them complain about their neighbor's lawn...
Mowing the lawn is the only hour of uninterrupted creativity I get in the week. Also my neighbour's lawn is 50% dandelions.
Your lawn is green concrete; a lifeless painting with nothing for pollinators.
Your neighbor's lawn has wildlife in the deadlands of the suburbs.
Except for the magnolia tree and vegetable garden cleary visible in the photo...
A tiny little strip of life, carefully manicured to minimize nature as much as possible.
Might as well pave over the rest of it and just have potted plants for all the good that does.
