this is curious, as cyclists are famous for not remembering what the traffic lights are for, or if there were any traffic laws the they are supposed to follow
Those are ad riddled sources by three obviously biased authors who each wrote books on the topic and stand to profit from a buy in, though.
Carlton Reid - "Roads Were Not Built for Cars: How cyclists were the first to push for good roads & became the pioneers of motoring", a book "whose very title is fightin' words" is basically a Mein Kampf of cycling. He also writes for DailyMail, which is famous for hit piece journalism and lack of credability.
Angie Schmitt - Right of Way: Race, Class, and the Silent Epidemic of Pedestrian Deaths in America, from which one reviewer quotes "The bigger challenge, Schmitt argues, is addressing the systemic racism built into cities". It is obvious to anyone who reads into this sentence that this is a woke bias.
Peter Walker - The Miracle Pill pushes the active lifestyle narrative, of which cycling is one.
While I think your argument only adds to the fact that cyclists are delusional, I have to agree that it is not a "cyclist" itself that is the problem, but halfwits both in cars and on bikes, with cyclists having a higher proportion of those.
after going on a long bike ride the other day… the first one ive done in many years, i felt so sharp and amazing. the combination of hard cardio and the motivation of seeing the scenery rush by you… makes cycling the most sustainable way of getting hard cardio
It doesn't really sort out cause and effect though. It's likely people in poor health are less likely to jump on a bike.
a lower risk of all-cause dementia compared to driving
Basically any exercise is better than no exercise.
This certainly tracks with my first hand observations of dementia symptoms exhibited by many drivers.

Just in case anybody believes this.

As someone who drives and cycles I demonstrate it's possible to do both badly.
The age old tension remains taught
