But similarly, human behavior can be trained. We aren't NPCs. These bad drivers could be taught to drive at a safe speed regardless of the width of the street, through stricter education and enforcement. Pedestrians/cyclists/homes/businesses around the street -> drive slow, that should be an instinct.

I envy your commitment to saving fuel. I would be on the gas in 2nd so I don't have to faff around changing down when I hit a hill or have to slow down for whatever reason.
No, it's just a different style. It's like 1 pedal driving with the brake pedal. It would work particularly well with an electric car where the first part of the brake pedal is regen braking.
I agree, but you are making excuses for bad driving. It's still their fault that they drive too fast.
they have even lower emissions than regular bikes, accounting for the extra calories you need to eat to pedal.
This is a dumb argument because exercise is good.

I'm not sure why anyone expected Uber to stay cheap. It's got the same costs as a traditional taxi, a car and a driver, so it's priced similarly to a traditional taxi.
Absolutely those things are different. But the point of a search engine is to, crudely and algorithmically, sort out both.
Every (for profit)company is a monetization company. That's the definition of a company.
Block it then. Don't waste your attention on posts that don't bring you joy.
As I said, I completely agree that changing the shape of the road is an important component of this solution.
Yes, I am asking the operators of deadly heavy machinery to put in a small amount of conscious effort to keep people safe. Why is that an impossible request?
