People have different definitions of "camping", so this thread is going to be a hot mess.
For example: I've done backpacking ("camping"), starting the trek from a train platform, and ending up somewhere in the wilderness. It absolutely works, but is going to be impossible or not at all to taste for a lot of people. That and infrastructure limits where you can go.
Meanwhile, some people define "camping" as something more like "tailgating", which is where they pull up their vehicle right to the camping spot and may even sleep in the car. This fits with your take on things and I completely agree: this mode of camping would be a nightmare with trains, uber/lyft, and moving heavy a mile or more on foot.
The first example is a hiking trip.
