The fact that you can get to most areas within the Metro area in roughly 30-45 minutes, even during rush hour, speaks to this fact.

This is true, and it's uncertain whether this will be a deal breaker. Furthermore, let's not forget similar companies that cluster in the SF Bay Area aren't tied directly to mass transit. And transit in Seattle is pretty weak. But the future is in transit, so Detroit should at least guarantee all this commuter rail or LRT expansion become a real thing, not 10 years from now, but now.
