I completely disagree

I in no way support the door zone bike lanes BUT if faced with the option of fighting for a lane and having a bike lane, the bike lane wins.

If you choose to take the lane for long periods of time you will be
(a) buzzed within inches or worse, hit
(b) yelled/honked at (especially if there is a bike lane next to you!)
(c) pulled over by a cop even if it is your legal right
