Serious, straightforward question - do you think cycling on the road is
inherently a bad thing?

It's a good thing. Most of my issues with cyclists are when they on the
pavement, pretending to be pedestrians on various crossings, and of
course ignoring almost any kind of traffic sign (especially ones that
say "no cycling").
