Hostile architecture is among the symptoms of the hostile modern city, where neighbours never say hi, and people die on the streets as people walk passivly by.

    The one I’ve seen retract.They come up in the evening. You can still walk through them if needed, but, yes, they make shopping carts and wheelchairs unusable when they are active, but they’re often in apartment entrance and other places that don’t use shopping carts.

        I’m aware. You will find that wheelchairs don’t go over sleeping bodies very well either. When they are found at apartment doors in major cities, usual tenants have an access card that will lower the pylons for entrance.

        And, to be honest, I’ve seen people sleeping between the poles, so. Whatever I guess.
