Yeah, rentals are a bit of a nuance around here too, but probably because they are still a novelty for many.

IMO, if you're the type of person who rents often, it's probably better to buy an e-scooter. The convenience, money saved, and comfort/performance benefits are going to be a massive advantage.

But I'd rather see idiots on rental e-scooters than idiots in multi-ton cars.

It's a nuisance everywhe but they must be making bank to be able to absorb all the losses from trashed scooters.

Yes, ultimately I agree with you. Micro mobility is far preferable to cars. It would be a better world if everyone was getting around on e-scooters.
