Exclusive zoning sounds really odd to me. Not only because you have to travel to get to anything. It also divides the usage of the city into different zones for different times of the day. 7-17: People are in the office or industrial districts. 17-20: People are in the shopping/eating districts. 20-07: People are in the residential districts.
Even the most busy office district can become quite dead and scary at night time, would you want to walk alone there at night when nobody else is around? Who watches over your house during the day?
The problem is also when you combine these time slices with the traveling - Everybody has to travel between the different zones at exactly the same time, causing major traffic congestions.
