It was some wacky jurisdiction thing between the city, the market stewards that run the whole market, and individual car brained shop owners. The city has basically wanted to end customers entering for decades, but the market corporation was always resistant, probably due to dumb vendors.
Turns out wow, like literally every other shopping district that opens up space for bikes and people and reduces cars, foot traffic and sales are way up.

The #1 dominating factor above all others was perseverance. How much the person would just keep working despite obstacles mattered more than anything else.
The same goes for people running and starting businesses. Intelligence isn’t the dominating factor, perseverance is.
