I think one of the main complains are the shadows of the blades. Imagine your whole house or office flickering for half the day. Thats why they are build further away from buildings.
I think the point they are trying to make is “how is it a problem people complain about if we thought ahead and stopped it from happening to begin with?”.
I once visited a wind turbine assembly hall where they had a huge turbine standing right outside, casting blade shadows every few seconds. They said you stop noticing them after the third day.
Yeah, we recently drove through Ottawa in Canada and there were wind turbines everywhere. We loved it. They’re beautiful.

So how is that the main complaint if it never affects anyone?
Because we plan ahead and build them further away.

Yes, they were all in rural areas. Which is fine. That’s why we have transmission lines.
