I’d outlaw sauce bottles which make getting it all out harder, especially the ones which don’t have the opening at the bottom and make it impossible to put the bottle with the opening facing downwards.

Glad you live and work in a place where biking is a viable option, but it’s the complete opposite for me. It takes me 20 minutes to drive to work on a route that would take three hours by bike just because of the sheer distance, and there simply are no bus routes out to where I live. Not saying we should stop advocating for better mass transit and bike-friendly urban planning, but just bear in mind your situation is not representative of everyone else’s.
I don’t have other options. It’s frequently dangerous and very exhausting as it’s a hill-ridden area, but due to the amount of personal use cars, commuting by a bus goes from 20-30 minutes to over an hour as personal use cars create massive traffic. I think it should be mandated for there to be adequate long, mid and short distance public transport with adequate bike lanes and they should also add e-vehicle lanes for e-bikes and so on, since they’re very dangerous on bike lanes from my experience. Banning cars is not an overnight feat, but it would resolve many issues. Of course, alongside it housing and remote work issues should need being resolved, to both provide people option not to live near work and to even be able to live near work. There is no simple issues with simple solutions when it comes to society and its planning.
I think the point is, it’d benefit everyone to work TOWARDS this thing being a reality for almost everyone. Just because it isn’t doesn’t mean it can’t be.
Gawd I would kill to bike to work when I’m not WFH. But I’m in the same situation as you, the timings work out about the same (my bike timings are only 1hr30 each way) but that’s an extra MULTIPLE HOURS I don’t get to be home with my cats and partner. Then I imagine how much earlier I’d have to get up… Absolutely untenable.
Uphill both ways? 3 hours riding is 36 miles if you’re taking it very slow.
