The pyramid also takes into account how “vulnerable” each mode of transportation is, in other words, who yields to whom. If you’ve ever been run over by a cyclist - it hurts. So it stands to reason that pedestrians should be prioritized and protected by users of modes towards the tip of the pyramid.
