Is it any different to car drivers (who "made the choice") killing pedestrians?
Advocating for scooter riders to be forced onto the road is absolutely advocating for more unnecessary deaths. Car vs. scooter is dramatically more lethal than scooter vs. walker. It really is clear cut.
If you are concerned by the way scooters are used on the footpath then advocate for more courteous scooter use.
There's no reason why people can't use scooters safely on the footpath. It might take people a while to learn how, but fundamentally scooters don't pose a significant risk to walkers the way cars do to scooters.
