Mock Georgian is an extreme imo (like below link) but I do like Georgian architecture in general if it is original or convincing: https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2F...

The problem is more like a random compilation of ransom-note pseudo-architecture with decals, whatever is profitable at the moment for a builder and maybe makes nods to 3 different styles at once, doing none of them right or with any actual sense of proportion, and done with cheap materials. Brutalism is less bad (and I hate it), but it is less bad than the blight that is everywhere.
If we don't like centering the style on Georgina, then pick something else, Greek Revival, Federalist, Craftsman, cottage, even actual modern styles... whatever but pick SOMETHING, implement it with good design, proportions, materials, and consistency (both self-consistency with the style, and with a sense to build something consistent with history), it'd be an improvement.
It also seems to me that the lede got buried, which is that there is a lot of opposition to development of new housing, which is not surprising since new development is so consistently ugly and a blight, not an improvement. Do the work to make development good, and we'll see less opposition.
