I actually feel this way about C++ to some extent. I love that C++ has zero overhead abstractions. I hate that to use them requires programming in the most obtuse and indirect meta language. If you ever read, I think it was Modern C++? Wher

It makes sense the downtown is where people in the suburbs go to work and that therefore downtown appears to be making more. But that's still ignoring the fact that there's a cost to maintain every road, water pipe, sewer, sidewal

That's fine if people want to live in the suburbs but... They need to start paying the full amount of what it costs to maintain those suburbs. As it is, the dense urban downtown is subsidizing all of it. That's not fair. https:&#

Do they require an app, registering an account, being online to use them? I don't want lights someone else controls and not going to pay for lights that report to someone else when they are on/off.

Do you mean to write "they all do not wear helmets"? or does "road cycling" mean something other than just using a bicycle on the road? I see few if any helmets https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbsMKxNORgQ
