You say that as though you think it’s okay.
Fact is, sometimes it is “ok”. I’m mostly talking about cars that are just trying to jump ahead of the line and are looking for a “nice guy” to let them in. As I said earlier, I’m an “assertive” driver. I’m a nice guy when people want to just get into traffic. When someone tries to use a gap between trucks in the right lane to pass three or four of us in the passing lane, I don’t let them in. They can take their place in the line and get past the trucks like the rest of us.

I hate those stupid, rude, entitled half-wits too. However, if you successfully prevent them from merging, it seems not unlikely that it will further frustrate them, and possibly cause them to do something even stupider that will kill somebody.
Given that the goal is zero accidents, it seems to me that letting the mentally defective crumb-bums in might provide the greatest safety for the greatest number.
Of course, there are other ways to look at it.
