I agree that a form of category might be a good idea, but I disagree that the example is a different thing.

Another example could be banning loud or polluting vehicles in the city centre, as is happening in many cities. They use the same sweeping rules as in "No bicycles" and allow EVs "because they are silent and green as we all know" while in reality EVs are more noisy than a similar car at city speeds and up. Most people are not aware of this, but if you are, you could just as easily feel discriminated against in a small, new, diesel car. However, it would, in my opinion, be too difficult to have a society with the amount of rules needed to fix these kinds of cases.

(It is the low friction tires on EVs and the extra weight that cause the added noise. A stupid problem that could easily be fixed with normal tires on EVs.)
