It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

That makes sense.

Could perhaps put cable/hydraulic bike brakes on both rear wheels, in a position where they can be operated by your left hand individually or together? It seems like this should be possible.

This assumes that the pedals are connected to both wheels via a car-style differential so that the rear wheels aren't locked together and steering is actually possible.
