Guess I'm the 0.1%

Absolutely. There are certain niches where you really do need to focus on portability.

But like you said, a bike like this is extremely expensive, that's because a ton of budget is going into trying to counteract the main downsides of a folding bicycle: They're clunky, they're inconvenient, and they're heavy.

But for anyone who is able to sacrifice the floor/wall space, a standard bicycle will be lighter, and specc'd with higher quality components at the same price point.

Neat, but I'd never buy a folding bike (and neither should you, unless you truly desperately need it to take up as little space as possible.)

Excellent news.

I believe it's a chameleon.

Can't tell if an unreasonable entitled comment, or a sarcastic comment.

Maybe both? (눈_눈)

Your doctor stared at you as if they were going to throw back a couple more vicodin?

Poe's Law, some people actually believe what you're saying.

/s exists for a reason on the internet, where toneless text reigns supreme.

I mean, of course they do! Austerity starves working class folk, and leaves them desperate.

Desperate people, largely, don't have the energy, time, the means to fight for better labour conditions, better wages, better insurance, better benefits, or really anything. Starving people don't have the means to fight.

That is... until people have nothing to lose, then the gravity-powered socio-political equalizers come out.
