A) You have greater faith in the general public than I do.
B) I have personally seen a lot of cyclists fail to know how to operate their bike in traffic, and now you want me to have confidence in their ability to operate the bike rack.

The above two points were somewhat tongue in cheek, but I also see other issues. People with expensive bikes taking a great deal of care to make sure they don't get scratched. Then you get people who don't know how to use it or aren't good at using it. Then an issue where the rack is full, and another cyclist wants to get on.
