To quote you more:
> I’m talking about duos and trios just riding in sync having a conversation.
> This happens way too frequently in some areas of where I cycle. Nobody calls them out on it either, except honking drivers.
This post sure sounds like you think they already aren't following the rules by hanging out side to side, having a conversation for an extended period of time.
If that's not what you meant, that you're only talking about when someone tries to pass, then okay I guess we're not in disagreement here.
And let's not forget that you also said:
> Cyclists going side-by-side in a single-lane (per-direction) is violating the rules.
Which is only true on certain shapes of road, and the core of the rule is staying out of lanes when possible, even when they're already single-file. So I think any misunderstanding on my part is understandable and not purely my fault.
