I don't understand how jumping curbs is supposed to be a problem, that's just something you have to do to get around sometimes. It also seems like something that hitting potholes would easily get confused for.

You can get around without having to jump curbs, and potholes are also avoidable.

Scooters are supposed to be on the street. There is no need to jump any curbs.

Where I'm from there's still a plenty of combined pedestrian/bike paths that have an annoyingly high curb after every crosswalk.

Yeah, I ride a bike a lot and escooters usually are treated the same as far as road laws go where they are allowed. Can't think of when I have had to jump a kerb.
