ok so take away the bike lane from this picture and you're left on the right of the road, still in the door zone and with no visible markings to remind drivers that they don't belong there and you do. The notion to say that theres no benefit is a bit silly imo
The right hook issue will always be an issue and really comes down to cyclist awareness and safety, you have to know that you are going to be in danger at intersections and should approach with caution and make sure you look and make your presence known before continuing through. Be a defensive cyclist
