I wish there was greater acceptance in the west of bike-based contraptions like bikes with big cargo baskets / barrows, or trailers, or bikes with sun/rain shelters above. They do exist but are usually considered kinda dorky and weird and most bike infrastructure isn’t designed with these larger vehicles in mind. But they are common in several Asian countries and can be very practical. They help with the “I can’t use a bike because it’s raining or because I need to carry groceries” problem. Of course they are heavier and take more effort to pedal, but c'est la vie.
