There are short grasses, slow growing grasses, and lawn alternatives. Most of them are hardy in warmer climates, not our Canadian zones 3 and down. I mer a person once, who solved the whole issue by spraying soil sterilant on the whole mowed yard. Grass stayed short. Brown, but short.
Why indeed? You make so much sense, Mark. Three inches high and still keep the pointy little tips! In Belgium once I saw grass that apparently grew to about 8" and stopped. The parks were so lovely with their natural, deep shaggy grass...
Astroturf. You just described astroturf.
If I didn’t rent, I would consider it!

A lawn is futile vanity. Unless you enjoy yard work. Then it is a good hobby. 😉
This person got tired of neighbours complaining the grass was not mowed.
I agree. Vanity.

I need that Belgium grass!
Because grass is almost always in contact with water in one form or another, and water makes it grow.
And it keeps the lawnmower manufacturers in business. 😉
