Is it time to start calling out bad cyclists?

But you can be excellent in all other aspects of how you're riding and as a whole be better than many non-headphone-wearing cyclists.

I personally don't listen to music 'on the go' but I can completely understand why someone would.

At least people might shut up about helmets for a bit.

You must have missed the bit where I wrote, quite on purpose, 'ceteris paribus'.

You can indeed be excellent in all other aspects of how you're riding and as a whole be better than many non-headphone-wearing cyclists. But if you took the headphones off, all other things remaining equal*, you would be more aware of your surroundings.
