Trailers do exist and there is no good reason to drive a commercial vehicle every day for simple trips. It is also less expensive to use a trailer.

Yes, I’m sure that guy made the comment so he could get advice from HN’s top minds about how he doesn’t actually know what his requirements are.
Clearly he made the comment to justify to strangers on the internet why he needs to buy a bigger truck. Truly the need to “adjust the angle of the handlebars awkwardly” is a great burden.
It is fine if one of your key requirements is to compensate for something ;)
Fellow motorbike trailer owner here.
This is a great solution. I have a small utility trailer I use to move my dirtbike (and lots of other stuff!) I tow it with a CR-V.
Since I don't need the hauling capacity every day, or even every week, it's great to leave the trailer at home and park in more places.
I'm interested in a trailer, but the space they take up while not being used (which is most of the time) is a big negative.
There are some pretty slick folding trailers out there. They save a little bit of space
