There's rural and super rural. I live in the UK, 15km from the nearest big town, 90km from london, surrounded by fields and woods, but 2km from a rail station and with 300mbps fttp. I can work just as effectively as colleagues in London with folks in India, China and the USA... My point is that extreme changes to infrastructure aren't needed for cities to become much more distributed and for urban movement to become much reduced and changed in pattern.
