So little kids on bikes should be on the road? Skateboards should be on the roads? Wheelchairs should be on the road?

Could you go and be outraged for delivery robots somewhere else?

Last I checked none of your idiotic examples were commercial delivery vehicles.

Ideally yes for all of these with maybe the exception of wheelchairs, cars should be small enough and roads large enough to accommodate small man powered vehicles.
