There is no shortage of vehicles to ride :)
As this thread started with a commuter bike, I'll stick to commuting. The low visibility of recumbents in traffic (both of the rider and what the rider can see) is a bigger issue than ergonomics.
Each rider determines their own level of acceptable risk, etc etc, but regulation has nothing to do with their lacking adoption for commuters.

That's true. The greatest drawback of my recumbent is the inability to use backpack at the same time. (Sure there are saddlebags, but that's less convenient.)
