Bus drivers are frequently cunts who drive dangerously, you may not mind sharing a lane with them but many more vulnerable / less confident road users will feel differently.

Bus drivers are infrequent cunts who drive dangerously, but when one shows up driving dangerously there's always two more that show up driving dangerously just to be infrequent cunts

Peds are the most vulnerable road users - they have to share their bus stop with cyclists and scooterpeople in this scenario. It's really not ideal.

The bus drivers here are the worst. They are guaranteed in every single circumstance to do what makes their life easier whether that means endangering another road user or pedestrian or not. I know it’s a big problem for riding around the centre of the city for riders with lower levels of experience or confidence.

Seems preferable to negotiating the river of rubbish and distracted / phone-absorbed peds crowding bus stops in this setup.
Where this system has been implemented on King Street in Hammersmith, the bus lane has disappeared entirely, meaning that the bus now crawls at <5 mph in the general traffic lane rather than doing 10 mph behind cyclists.
