It's not that we disagree, you're just flat out wrong. Even the same sheriff's office tweeted that sharrows mean cyclists are allowed to use the full lane.

I still think the OP cyclist is abusing the existence of a sharrow, which should mean that it's a shared lane, not a lane available for cyclists to take over.
Actually, the LA Sheriff disagrees with you on this. The sharrow means the entire lane can be used. Sharing doesn't imply I get 95% and you get 5%. It means we both take turns using 100%, or we both use 50%.
