Tell that to a parent who has to make a decision if their 8 year old should cycle to school by taking the lane.
This is the fundamental problem with this thinking. "I can do it, why can't you?"
The evidence is that is you want people cycling it must be visibly safe and segregated from cars no matter how easily you find it is taking the lane.

I am the parent of a 6 year old and am currently teaching her how to keep to the right on the local MUP while riding. Once she's got that down, I'll start taking her on the roads here. I suppose it really depends on personal experience. If the parent doesn't have experience riding in traffic, then I doubt they would feel that it's appropriate that their child(ren) do so.
