Why would neighbors want that?
Because neighbors are people who would be able to operate businesses out of their homes if the zoning codes allowed it, and/or might want to be customers of those businesses, and/or don't feel entitled to control how their neighbors use their property.
Do you own a home? Do you have kids? Do they go to public school?

My neighbors want peace, quiet & tranquility and so do I. My planned neighborhood doesn’t have parking lots for “customers,” for one.
Yes, it's always about parking, somehow. Everything, everywhere, is always ultimately about parking.
Since my subdivision can only be accessed by car for most people (the only way to walk to it is through other subdivisions; it’s right off a major route), yes parking matters.

Everybody needs a hobby, and if that's yours, then ok, I won't argue.
Generally YIMBYs are more concerned about housing than 24-hour bars, though.
PPs on here seem to want anyone to be allowed to operate businesses out of their houses, so they’re not just concerned about shelter.
I sure as heck don’t want random people in my neighborhood all day going to Mrs. Smith’s hair salon in her garage next to mine.
You don't want your neighbor to have a home-based hair salon, therefore it should be illegal for your neighbor to have a home-based hair salon? Well then.
If Mrs. Smith wants to open a hair salon, she can rent a space or move to a neighborhood that allows in-home hair salons. Isn’t it great that there are so many types of neighborhoods to choose from? Including SFH-only ones.

Correct. Most of my other neighbors don’t want that either.

Do you mean brick-and-mortar businesses where people come to your house for goods & services? Or a business that is technically registered at your house, but where the owner is constantly traveling to customers or working remotely?

I run a business out of my home and no one is the wiser.
