No. You cannot assume this, because you have no guarantee that after your last game session you will actually be in Whiterun. You could be in Ivarsted at the inn, because you did not make it all the way home.

If you are in Whiterun then you are there likely because you already used fast travel. If you used fast travel in this way then it is because you do not like traveling or hate staying at an inn. It then means that traveling needs to be improved. Or you could also just have forgotten how much fun it is to pay 10 gold for a night even when you own all houses.

Time is not an argument to use fast travel. It is an argument for a greedy play style.

Not once did he made it clear he meant a new mode, he meant a standard feature all together to be more like morrowind and that's why nearly everyone has disagreed with him.

Carriages already take you within reasonable distances of just about anything, the most annoying (doesn't have to be a bad thing, remember?) probably being the Winterhold-Windhelm run of, I don't know, 4-5 minutes, tops, on horse? I use carriages all the time, it's an "explained" way of travel, something that makes sense, rather than a click & appear interface which fails miserably. I don't want "travel services" gone, I don't think OP want this gone, I'd even want more of if (variations, some seen in the JAM), and preferably I'd like to influence how it all works via questing.

Especially in a hard core system which was mentioned in the original post.

Well, maybe you have seen the locations, but I doubt you have seen everything there is to see in this game. I have seen the same Dunmer farmer marching off to join the Legion, so I know what you are talking about there, but I have also seen a lot of interesting randomn encounters with multiple spawns. I just ignore the ones I have seem too many times.

Just last weekend while watching my fiance play -- she never fast travels -- I saw her Imperial archer come across a troll fighting a pair of flame atronachs on the plains west of Whiterun. They were fighting over the corpse of a randomn bandit outlaw that had wandered too far from Silent Moon's Camp. While she was watching the fight and trying to decide if she wanted to engange and which side to assist, a mudcrab stormed out of a nearby mud pit and waddled right past her, intent on joining the battle between the troll and the flame atronachs, thus proving once and for all that mudcrabs do have tiny brains.

So, the troll knocks one atronach down before getting killed by the other (fire weak trolls should know better than to engage two fire creatures at once), so the Imperial archer starts peppering the other atronach with arrows, not realizing from the distance that the first had only been knocked down, but not killed -- although the lack of an explosion should have been a hint.

The mudcrab is still wandering around trying to decide who to attack, when a dragon lands and blasts the Imperial with fire breath. The dragon immediately takes to the air again, leaving the Imperial to contend with the mudcrab and the atronach. About this time, a wolf can be heard howling in the distance.

So the Imperial archer decides to take out the mudcrab first cause those things can just be annoying, then focuses on the atronach, while the dragon is circling deciding on its next move. After the mudcrab, the Imperial takes out the atronach and then turns to face the dragon, who has decided to circle back and do a hovering breath attack on the Imperial, while the Imperial is being distracted by the wolf who has chosen this moment to make its charge.

While the Imperial engages the wolf, the second atronach decides to stop playing dead and stands up and starts peppering the Imperial with fireballs in retribution for slaying its brother. By now the Imperial is running in circles shooting arrows in all different directions, finally slaying the other atronach and wolf, so she can focus on the dragon, since a firebreathing dragon is not going to take down a flame atronach from the air.

After slaying the dragon and collecting a heap load of dragon bones and scales, the Imperial decided to trot back to Whiterun to sell them, completely forgetting where she was going when all this started.

Too much fast travel and you miss out on this sort of thing.

... what? I must be missing something because that doesn't make any sense to me.
