I'm not anti filtering. I just think there needs to be give and take.
Bicycles are smaller than cars, smaller than motorcycles in fact, and this fact can be used to make the cyclists journey faster (filtering) and drivers' journeys faster (by allowing cars to squeeze past when there isn't room to pass if they gave the cyclist the same room as they give a car). Demanding the space you'd give a car other than when it suits you is just, in my opinion, selfish.
