You make some fairly reasonable points, but it’s very clear you’re talking explicitly about cities which is a small (but significant) part of the problem. Realistically if you’re trying to get rid of vehicles, most modern cities are already well set up to do that.
I disagree that cars are more excluding than cycling; very few people of older age would be safe cycling compared to driving. Yes, bikes are far more affordable though.
Electric bikes could be quite revolutionary (I’ve owned various modes of electric personal transport - which I’ve turned into a “net 0” project and entirely charged off solar), but when you said “cycling” I don’t consider them to be part of that: many cities exclude powered vehicles from cycling infrastructure
