No doubt even an extremely expensive bike is going to be way cheaper to operate than an expensive bike. To me, posting a picture of an expensive bike along with a sarcastic comment about it being "impossible" to get kids around in the winter is not too different than posting a picture of a cheap car with the same comment. Many people do not have a secure place to store a large expensive cargo bike, whereas almost every dwelling unit in the region comes with a "free" parking spot attached.
Mobility shouldn't come with a price tag of thousands of dollars. It's a bit nuts to me to say that it's easy or even practically possible to get kids around in the winter in this city. Of course it absolutely is- but you must pay for a vehicle that entitles you to use the roads, which are very well-maintained.
