Sure thing, I could mostly get on board with that.

Still won't eliminate the need for better energy storage technology. And of course, unless people just never go further than a mile from their house, some sort of transportation infrastructure will be necessary.

You are damn right about that. More distributed access to everything from energy to food would be super awesome. That would substantially decrease transportation costs over time.
