Now to the question:
Why would anyone, especially a cyclist, want the use of BL when present to be mandatory or even mandatory with a list of exceptions? What benefit is gained for the cyclist?
That's precisely my viewpoint as well. I will only support efforts that benefit cyclists. Chipping away at cyclist's rights is not a benefit in my opinion.
