If I lived in Boston--as opposed to a fairly far out exurb--I could imagine not owning a car given that I mostly work remotely. Though I probably still would so I could get out to mountains, etc. for the weekend. In any case, I would certainly want to be able to drive so I could do various vacations and sometimes necessary work driving. Some of this is less common in Uber days but certainly not non-existent.
My point again isn't about owning or not owning a car but being able to drive a car when needed.
When do you need to? If your family never drives, you wouldn’t see a need to.
It’s almost like asking “well wouldn’t you want to be able to go camping?” Sure, if you grew up camping you might know you want that. But if you didn’t, why would you even think about going camping?
Similarly, if you’ve only lived in a city where you can hire a driver (cabs, moving vans, etc) as needed, why would you ever think you need to be able to drive? What is the situation you’ll be in where you need a license?
I've lived without a car for years but I still find a license invaluable for the few times I'm moving or helping someone move. It's much (much!) cheaper where I live to borrow a car from a friend or car share service than pay a moving service. I aim to never use a car except when moving or visiting family inaccessible to public transit.
Leaving aside that one office I do go into sometimes is in a suburban office park (but I suppose I can take commuter rail/Uber when I needed to go in). I have lots of friends scattered around the area. Most do not live in the city. It's very usual for me on weekends to go to the mountains/shore/skiing/etc. all of which need cars. (And the handful of people I know who live in e.g. SF without cars use Zipcar and rentals a lot to pickup things, etc.)
When I travel in the US, I go places like national parks which all need cars to get to.
I would absolutely not be fine with living in a city with no real way to get out of it.
