I've ridden a bicycle before, I don't need this explained to me. Unfortunately for cyclists (including me), it being more strenuous to obey the law isn't an excuse to not obey it.

Unfortunately, it being more strenuous to obey the law will reduce the number of people obeying it, whether it's an excuse or not.
When deciding policy, one cannot afford to frame things in terms of personal responsibility.

The law is there as mandate from the people. If it isn't working, or seriously inconviences a particular demographic, it can be changed. Note that cyclists have no problems with circles/roundabouts...
