This isn't about courteousness, it's about complaining about uncourteousness...
Why complain when it's a reality of life, going to happen, deal with it.
Irony...

It's a little deeper than that. Most cyclists walk and can identify when a pedestrian is being discourteous or oblivious relative to their position on the path. Most out of shape, middle aged, angry, white men don't bicycle and often misinterpret a cyclists defensive tactics as discourtesy.
Most guys rode a bike for transportation from age 5 to 15, I think we can relate to a cyclist, especially one that uses it for primary transportation vs recreation.
