Definitely not practical and not designed for the person that uses it. Great way for companies like Amazon to save a buck while making life harder for the people that get paid the least.

Hardly any protection from the elements
no place to put a drink or anything
have you ever been on a bicycle seat all day?
not safe if your on a road with cars/trucks

Maybe it would work for a college campus or something, but small electric box trucks would be far better for the person doing the work.

Imagine a bike road without cars and trucks.
