Yeah, let's not hyperanalyze bike sustainability. If you are riding a bike for commuting, you are drastically more sustainable than if you chose to drive. There isn't any strong reason to try to muddy the victory.
Sure, some people are just into min-maxing stuff like this. I think the more interesting information is about the impact of bikesharing and how an electic bike can be more sustainable than a traditional one.
