The flip side of that argument is that if there are two people in that car, or there are two cars behind a cyclist that they're being selfish to insist that their rights outweigh the cyclists.

It goes both ways. And once more (and I'm sure not the last) IF I more than a car or two behind me and IF I can SAFELY move over to allow them to SAFELY pass me, I will. However IF I cannot SAFELY move over to allow them to SAFELY pass me, than I am not going to do so.

That is NOT being either rude or inconsiderate. And IF the motorists are insisting that I do so so that they can get to their doctor's appointment than THEY are the ones who are being rude and inconsiderate, not me.
