Good bike infrastructure absolutely makes it safe and comfortable. Separated bike lanes is key. I also love walking, but this kind of rhetoric is just car-centric propaganda.
Even good bike lanes are packed, sometimes shared with pedestrians and involve crossings where you can intersect with cars. That might be okay for some but it’s very different from biking on a trail.
Of course it’s a car centric argument, that’s what I’m advocating for.
