Agree. There are a number of variables that figure in for each of us and these often change day to day.
My quibble is people making assumptions that everyone who rides a bike to work must become Bicycle Driving MAMILs, ride road or mountain bikes, get a workout, wear hi-viz & gloves & lycra & helmets & cleated shoes & ..., sweat, shower when they get to work, and hang their smelly clothes in their cube or office to offend everyone around them. And we wonder why bicycle sales have been sinking every year for the past decade.
