I subscribe to your opinion. In my city, using public transportation to get to work takes about 40 minutes, up to 1 hour. By car, I can get there in 20 minutes. Using a bycicle, it would still be around 20 minutes, I can take some shortcuts that I can't take with the car. But riding a bycicle at 08:00 AM in the traffic would be...suicidal... If there would be a bycicle lane on the road, I'd happily use it.
I'm guessing it's the liquid that you're trying to compress that makes a difference. There may be some problems with gasoline (flammability ?) that are not present in brake fluids or diesel fuel...
I was a teaching assistant at a technical University in 2003 - 2005. One of the homeworks I assigned to students in the OOP class every year was to build a dynamic structure of Person(Name, Age) objects that can be traversed to display the persons in alphabetical Name order or in ascending Age order...
Another homework consisted of building a spreadsheet-like application with theoretically unlimited rows and columns. In this application, each Cell was linked both by column and by row, to allow some operations to be easily applied to an entire Row or to an entire Column.
Where I live, shipping costs about $75 for a book from Amazon.com. If I have to choose between $25 paperback + $75 Shipping & Handling from Amazon with 2 weeks delivery time or I can get it at $25 with an instant download from an e-book shop, guess which one would I choose ?

The 2008 VW GTI has an electric motor that drives a hydraulic pump that does the steering assist.
(it's not a true electric-only assist)

I guess me and all my students are liable...
Here's another advantage:
