I’m sorry, but your mental gymnastics are just embarrassing. If you are going to be snarky, have better, more relevant arguments. Gotta love how you put “all the time” in italics, as if that’s some specially strong point. Hopefully no one takes it to heart and tries to cross them when the traffic lights don’t allow them to.

The whole point of crosswalks is that their use isn’t supposed to overlap between pedestrians and cars. You will literally fail your driving exam if your “automobile operates in the same space as pedestrians” on a crosswalk. I feel silly just pointing out the obvious.
