I don't think it was a silly question.

I imagine the Vista Tower was and is a harder job engineering-wise than the super tall slender towers in NYC.

The Vista is one of a kind in many ways -- how many supertalls have a surface road going through them?

Whereas once you've built one very slender super tall, building, you would find building a second more straightforward as you'd be able to learn from your mistakes.
