What's something that you were surprised to find out a lot of people hate?

cyclists would not need to do those things if there was proper infrastructure and if car drivers weren't out to kill them.

making bikes come to a complete stop is less safe because of the acceleration curve of a bike, if the way is clear it's safer the cyclist and anyone else around for the cyclist to maintain speed

Regardless, the law states that a vehicle must stop at a stop sign. Bikes are considered vehicles, and thus must come to a complete stop.

the law doesn't determine what is safest, physics does.

the law also varies by jurisdiction and in some places having cyclists treat stop signs like yields rather than full stops is the law.

Really? I didn't know that! Where I'm from it's different. That's good to know, thank you! Have a lovely day, and stay safe out there.
