They're no more risky than cycling, and much less costly than cycling, driving, falling, playing sports, working out,

That's just not correct. Just because fewer people do it, doesn't mean your relative risk is less. You're more likely to go to the hospital via escooter injury than most of the other things you mention. Given the duration of an average escoot and the number of riders, it doesn't compare at all to any of those other activities.
Ok. Good. So it is more risky. I get what you're saying about cost to the health system. Of course it's less costly. The fact that not many people use escooters doesn't seem like a good risk mitigation factor to me.
