It's not some grand conspiracy. Bike lanes are a super easy way to win political points by doing almost nothing. Paint some lines on the road, bam, progressive urban paradise, vote for me.

Most people who actually advocate for bike lanes absolutely *hate* the painted-on variety - because they are dangerous as fuck, especially in a city where drivers aren't used to cars. (Also people park in them all the time.)

Proper bike lanes are separated from the road by at least a curb and ideally a little alley of trees or similar barrier.
