It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

The problem with the approach they're taking, and I do appreciate that they're making an effort to map out which streets are safer than others, is that it relies on the proximity of cars passing cyclists.
Unfortunately, you only need one idiot who isn't paying attention to kill a cyclist even on the "safest street". So maybe this creates a false sense of safety.
Counterpoint: I don't think any cyclist is going around urban environments with a false sense of safety. We're all hyper aware that any car could kill us
I would disagree based on person observation.
It's also possible that the type of person who would use this service, is probably a cautious, aware cyclist.
