If more people bike, the people who can't will still enjoy safer streets, safer places to walk/roll, less air pollution, and denser, more diverse land use.
This kind of topic is a good way to tell the difference between people operating in good faith and those who either just like to fight or who have some other reason they'd like to oppose you and are weaponizing an identity to do so rather than just dealing directly with the issue. Folks operating in good faith can add a, "yes, and" reminder so that we don't lose sight of an excluded marginalized group.
