Reply to comment by app4that in Biking in New York City Is 25 Times More Dangerous Than in Vancouver, Study Finds by habichuelacondulce

a “bet” isn’t worth anything. unless you have some data here, the safe assumption is that safer better infrastructure keeps everyone safer, whereas NYC’s janky splatters of paint just make everyone feel like it’s everyone for themselves.

I understand that they have similar meanings. I still found it strange to put bet in quotes.

because I thought it said “bet” not “surmise” and didn’t look back before posting, nothing more interesting than that
