They illegally park wherever. Block sidewalks. Block bike lanes. Block Crosswalks. Double-park.
Imagine I opened a store selling…I don’t know…chairs. Then I put out chairs

More like, why does the street cross the bike lane like that.
Fair enough. But the planners of this road must have a burning hatred of cyclists.
Can’t speak for this street, may just be poor planning, but sometimes you have to work within the limits of budget or the location you’re working with.
It could be something less obvious, like utilities running shallow alongside the road and without the budget to move those, or the bike lane was added after the streets were in place.
Usually bike lanes are tacked on as a “can we shut them up without making too many changes”
It seems like thoughtfully designed and implemented bike lanes are the exception to the rule
