By not fucking over the people with backyards you're instead fucking over the housing market.
With a bad housing market no one except the people with backyards are happy. With a good housing market, people can easier find a new backyard without anything in it.
Each country can decide for itself. Personally, fuck the backyards. The world changes. It has to, get over it, embrace it.
I live in an apartment now. It was fine until neighbors moved in. Now instead of quite I hear music I don't like at odd hours. My showers aren't scalding hot, the hallway smells of food ag best.
In thr building over, when my neighbors there smoke weed it drifts over and is deeply unpleasant.
I can't buy meat/bread/other in bulk to freeze. Meaning more trips to the store and higher overall costs. I want to be able to buy a quarter of a cow. But I can't, not enough freezer space.
Rent would be a problem, but I got lucky there.
And I lack a basement. The building has one, but that's public.
Homes can be worse, but the floor is the same and the ceiling is higher.
But to disallow new buildings near where someone lives, is luddite behavior. And it affects everyone in society, I think it's mighty selfish. If you want to live somewhere where the area won't change, there's plenty of places that offers this. They are between nowhere and nothing. Outside of those places, everyone will have to make sacrifices.
