You missed my point. I also think bike lanes on streets and roads are
terrible, no matter what color they're painted.

Does that include glow in the dark painted bike lanes?

Glow in the dark green is an improvement over a red bicycle lane.  I
suspect that red was selected to obscure any blood stains:

I don't bicycle paths that don't prevent vehicles from accessing. I
occasionally ride where there are such lanes and I opt to ride in the
vehicle lane.

Please note that parked cars, traffic cones, bollards, signs, speed
bumps, construction barricades, pot holes, cobblestones, flooding,
alligators, death traps, etc can be painted onto the bike path in 3D:

I sometimes see real alligators on the trail, and quite often,
poisonous snakes.
