That’s the same reason I hate bicycles! They make travel too easy for everyone. Need to go somewhere? All my associates immediately reach for their bikes, and think of it as the default mode of travel. Heaven forbid they put actual effort into traveling by walking the whole way, or better yet, crawling so that they can include their arms in the endeavor like nature intended.
I only use a bicycle when I’m going to a very obscure location and would have to do my crawling on dirt trails otherwise.
I don’t know about yours, but my bike has led me to the ground more times than I’d like - face first in some cases. I have the chipped/broken teeth to prove it. Nothing is foolproof, and everything has inherent risk. It’s all relative to crawling, but nothing is risk-free.
The events of Wall-E happened over generations. If your associates have forgotten how to walk already then they never knew how to begin with and were just faking it until something came along to save them. So at least now with a wheelchair as a crutch they can actually contribute rather than just pretending to be productive but getting nothing done in reality.

This is disingenuous. Does your bike regularly take you to the wrong destination?

Except you should be comparing it to motorized wheelchairs. Suddenly all your associates forget how to walk, WALL-E style.
