I would like to think you are right.
My experience of those people ,including Mark Treasure, is that they spend so much energy attacking people who repeatedly articulate that (other) view and misrepresent that view as some kind of vehicular cycling fascism, energy which could be directed at working together towards that view.
As a cycle trainer, obviously that is the area where my emphasis is and where I can do stuff. The fact that I don't sign their petitions or opine on their infrastructure suggestions doesn't mean that I don't support good design ideas that will improve public realm

I don't think the other view is separate though, it's a view that Mark Treasure and CEoGB would both endorse, I'm sure.
The whole mini Holland in Walthamstow looked to be a great trial of filtered permeability creating genuinely nice streets (though I only saw pictures), but we should keep an eye on the poor standard of the other boroughs' trials, which I believe will be less inspiring.
