micromobility is seen as a potential solution to moving people more efficiently around cities"

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.

A different poster referred to those as the Sheffield rack. In California, we do see those occasionally, but they suffer from a similar issue from my earlier comment. The design certainly allows for more compatibility with various bike designs, but I would add some sort of painted marking on the ground to encourage slightly-angled parking.
After all, if one bike with wide panniers is parked parallel with the Sheffield rack, it may deny a second bike from parking on the other side. If the first bike were locked to the vertical post but angled away from the rack, the second bike can do the same, allowing two to park anti-parallel.
