I can not imagine dealing with what a carriage driver does and not caring for horses. It would be a stupid, tiring, frustrating, and poor job to take.
They would be better off driving a cab.

What if those dog breeders had to take their dogs out into the public most days where the where scrutinized?
Plus, an abused horse make a poor animal to pull a carriage.

" especially the external dangers they face from cars or becoming panicked in the city."
How many of these trained horses panic? How many hit by automobiles?
FYI: 4 in 30 years.

"we now live in a world where the car kills more children than anything else, "

The back of the blade is secure against the log, so that would minimize twisting. If it didn't this ax wouldn't work.
log splitters are slow, and more difficult to take with you into the woods.

well done .

Modern car, less the 3% would ahve anything impact at all from EMP, and that would mostly be blinking dash lights that go away when you turn your vehicle off and back on.

"Nearly all of the available equipment that would be needed to build or repair infrastructure relies on either computers or electricity."
blatant ignorance.

"You might have that backwards."
I do not, and your post just underscores my point.
