I agree with your points.
I was once involved in a bicycle accident. Some kid on an adrenaline high was blasting down a sidewalk (wrong way) at about 25-30mph. I looked right, left, pulled out, right, and threw it into reverse. Too late. He skidded for 3-5 seconds and rolled across my hood instead of becoming a pancake. Jumped up, swore at me with fists, grabbed his bike, and took off again. He was ok. Left me with a trashed fender.

This isn't about stupid cyclists.
This is about infringing on a cyclist's legal right to navigate a government-designated transit lane.
