Bikes are good.
Private corporations usurping public walkways for their own profit is not good.
Haphazardly parked bicycles blocking the way for other bicycles, pedestrians, and (especially) disabled people is very not good.
I don’t disagree with anything you’re saying, but I think what you’re leaving out is that this is a people issue. People need to learn etiquette and be more considerate. Amsterdam has had a bike culture that predates the electric rentable bikes and people always park their bikes properly there.

Because it’s their bike and they want it to be safe and secure. Tends to be a lot different with a rental, though. And not all of this is the people themselves, either – the rental company will often place their bikes in the middle of a walkway when initially staging them.
Toronto’s publicly funded bike rental is exploding with growth but they mandate docks. Its a pro con trade off as if there are no docks, no bike, but the roads are clean and the program is expanding
