The main misconception in your post is that discouraging or preventing car traffic should necessarily do the same to freight traffic. All of the infrastructure you're talking about, like downtown highways and multi-lane stroads aren't there to facilitate freight, they're there to increase the throughput of car traffic, which makes up the majority of traffic and emissions. Grab a random picture of a congested stroad or highway and look at how much space the trucks use versus the cars (which are mostly single-occupant). When people talk about the negative externalities of (electric) cars, they don't mean we should live in a world where no trucks exist: they mean we shouldn't spend as much money and space on car infrastructure like urban highways and parking.
