I don't disagree, but not giving in puts you at risk and reinforces their belief that slow cyclists suck and get in the way. What's our point exactly? To teach neurotic people some moral lesson in a very strange setting or to ride and be safe?
I'm not saying they shouldn't learn to share the road. I just don't believe that method and location are the most effective way to do so.
