That Melbourne study about perceptions of urban trees is fascinating! Thanks for drawing my attention to it. I agree with you—I think it likely that they're actually measuring a drop-off in appreciation after an uncharacteristically high period of appreciation during lockdown. Just shows you how changeable people's attitudes can be and how short people's memories are!
