I think they are making the point you could just run or use a bicycle. Rather than "just sitting there" in the first place

  But replier addressed that, no? 30min car ride is not a 30 min run or bike ride. And then there's weather and terrain and layout. It may be 30min drive with some exercise vs 2hr bike ride in rain and mud. It's not as interchangeable as it may seem.

    Not really no. Maybe for highway travel. In my city, 20-30 minute car trip is certainly faster on a bike, especially if you factor in parking. As for partial bad weather, most people don't work out every day anyway. Of course there are edge cases with "rain and mud" there are also edge cases with protected bike lanes and rain cover. And if the point is to actually work out, what does rain matter? You are going to end up sweating anyway

    A 30 min car drive in city traffic is often a 20 minute bike ride. I don't think a car is going in mud. A rain jacket and overpants solves for rain nicely.
