Lol, let’s see you move anything more than small items with a bike trailer.
As the kids like to day, “touch grass”.
Counterpoint: a trailer ✨

I’m going outside more often than you, probably. 🤷
I transported an entire IKEA bed set on my bike. I think it’s just a matter of a skill issue.

Not a counterpoint. I bought a bike trailer and it’s far less useful for transport:
a) tippiness / base size: you cannot take any reasonable sized furniture in it, and absolutely nothing tall or top heavy.
b) lack of cover: you cannot transport anything unless the weather is perfect
c) lack of suspension: cars come with massive cushy suspension systems that prevent things from bouncing and breaking. This is also the main factor that limits biking home with groceries like eggs.
Again, I own a bike trailer, it’s mostly used for taking my hockey equipment to close games, it is not the same thing as a car and once you try and make it match the features of a car, you end up with 30 Rock Microwave / Pontiac Aztec situation.

For all of those there are cargo tricycles. 🤷

So you want me to take a multi wheeled, suspension having, covered, and motorized vehicle?
Congratulations, you’ve invented the Pontiac Aztec!
