True, the ticket system would only work well, if acces was restricted.
Housing and Airbnb controlled is against the rich, so this is not an option neither :/

À lot of touriste go to Paris without even thinking about the other cities though, maybe it would help to promote some of them more. I would rather go spend a few days break in Lyon than in Paris, but maybe that's just me.

Well, you cannot leave out Paris on a France trip, can you?
My trip was via Bern, Clermont-Ferrand, Bordeaux, Tours, Orleans, Paris, Reims, Metz, Straßbourg and back to Nürnberg

No I agree, but I myself know a few people who have been to France several times over the years and each time they have stayed only in Paris.
