I think I'd read this more like:
1. We don't know what mobility technologies to invest in (electric cars, scooters, electric bikes, who knows what else)
2. Increased hassle building out in US cities in general (you can look at comments around Google Fiber as well).
3. Lack of any investment from civic actors on developing support for bikes / scooters / electric / etc.
Basically, there are a lot of imaginable futures for urban mobility and there are no real signals in the US market about where things are going to end up. Uber / Lyft / the scooter folks / Tesla are all pushing their things but there's no real direction or leader and as a result cities are largely staying out (even failing to build obvious projects like bike infrastructure and public transit to urban cores).
