Though insurance and maintenance/repairs are other per-mile costs you are forgetting.
I’m not forgetting them. Insurance is not a per-mile cost. And as I explained in the comment you just replied to, I have no maintenance or repairs, other than tires.
The bikes I have cost far more to maintain and repair. My main bike I bought 4 years ago and have replaced virtually every component on it in that time. Both wheels, several sets of tires, 2 derailleurs, suspension rebuilt multiple times, multiple chains, cassette, brake pads, shifter cable/housing, grips, pedals, shoes, saddle, etc. etc. And its not even an ebike.
The fuck it isn’t! I mean, sure, technically it’s a cost per time period, but the cost per mile is just the cost per time period divided by the miles driven per time period. You can’t just go around pretending it doesn’t matter; that’s dishonest.

Either you are way overpaying on bike maintenance, or you’re leaving car-related costs out.

…but it isn’t? And it doesn’t?
…huh?
Okay, well, you can just choose not to believe me, that’s your prerogative.
