I'm fine with bike lanes on freeways, bridges and in tunnels, where cyclists are not allowed to ride anywhere but the bike lane, and, if not for the bike lane, they would not be allowed to ride there at all.

But, yes, the minute you put a bike line on a roadway where cyclists are allowed to ride outside of the bike lane, at least under certain circumstances and conditions, you're setting up a confusing situation, that I consider problematic enough to be labeled "bad" for cyclists.
