I suspect people disliked both of the approaches you suggested, or thought it was a false dilemma fallacy, but downvotes rarely come with explanations.

Contact your local MEP. Ask your local MP or Deputy or whatever you call them to push the relevant minister to oppose it. It's not great, but you do have a say.

Because there are some that are, because they contain dangerous design errors. So Forester fans find a city that made a load of serious mistakes in their bike paths, get the collision data, and bingo: an example where bikeways are more dangerous than roads.

If you tire of it calling out Forester for anecdata and rehashing data to disagree with the authors who collected the data, the last 12 minutes ties it up pretty well.

Belgium has a single Chief Head of Defence. In Belgium, the Joint Chiefs are some guys who figured how to get supplies from Dutch coffee shops!

Maybe, but still more tiring than being able to coast through on a more direct, comfortable and convenient cycleway instead of a motorway limited by sucky truck turning radii and visibility.

Article rests on one expert. That assistant professor's publication list doesn't seem to contain evidence about it, plus the quotes in the article don't directly say it happens.

Maybe it does, but that article only seems to be guessing based on (admittedly reasonable) theory.

Got proof? I've not cracked open a phone for a while to see if the component labelling matches the interface, let alone tested capacity of an extracted battery directly.

But he did say 'we fight like hell'. The bad edit just made it seem clearer than Trump's speeches ever are. If there had been an edit flash (where the screen briefly goes grey between clips) and ideally a couple of snatches of speech from in between, there would have been no credible complaint. This seems more like wanting history to be neater than it usually is, not an attempt to change Trump's fundamental message, no matter how much he's backpedalled it since.
