That's what I said, one or the other but not neither or both.

Some cyclists seem to expect you to do both, but that's also unsafe, and the entire point of my argument was to illustrate why that is.

And going back to my original point, dedicated bike lanes would solve this issue entirely, so I don't know why car people are against them.

It seems you've made an art out of latching onto the wrong details, removing all context, and arguing against a distortion of the argument that I actually made...
