And the amount of effort and space and knowledge you need to turn your love for gardening into a self-sustaining subsistence is utterly unfeasible for the vast majority of humans right now.

We tried it. We did it for eons. Then slowly, people started realizing they could trade what they have extra of, for things they needed, and that we could even centralize this trading system and cities were born, and then people were able to work jobs managing the trade of goods instead of just digging in dirt day and night and fewer people starved or froze every winter.

Our working world is, for the most part, objectively better than how we've lived for the last several hundred thousand years. What is making us miserable is our lack of community and connection, because we didn't do all that stuff I mentioned above alone. We survived by making groups, families, communities and eventually cities and nations.

We are in the better timeline right now, but all ya'll kids played Stardew Valley a buncha times and now you think you can go be farmers and be anti-social introverts at the same time.
