I suppose the tl;dr would go something like this: 1) we think mapping/navigation/routing should be as good for bicyclists, pedestrians, people in wheelchairs, on scooters, and micromobility generally as it is for those driving cars. 2) the reason mapping/navigation/routing is _not_ as good for micromobility as for cars is scarcity and incompleteness of map data necessary to enable it (we're using OSM to make this determination). 3) we're working on some tools to address the data problem, with an eye to building high-quality micromobility mapping/navigation/routing on top of it.

I was looking for an explanation of the comment above me, not of the article, but thanks anyway! Excellent work.
