Most tradespeople are working across several jobs at once. The cases where it would be practical to shuttle between them & organise all materials to be delivered ahead of time would be very limited.
You’d need to be in a dense area (city), that is relatively flat & have a number of large, simple jobs on the go at a time.
If you’ve ever built something you’ll be familiar with the million screws & extras you had to duck out for - tradesmen carry that stuff in their vehicle to save them (& you) the expense of them coming back with the parts later.
I’m an avid cyclist & used to ride motorbikes. There is absolutely no way I could carry what I need to do the job, outside of a massive multi-week fit out where I can essentially park my tools & all equipment onsite & commute to/from by bike.
What part of nobody expects everyone to use a bike do you not understand?
I don’t care about the people who cannot use a bike. What I do care about is that the people who can start doing so.

So? You make that sound like it’s a rare exception. Plenty of people living in dense cities, let’s start there.

I guess the carpenter in the example I gave you who started with one bike, now has three, and says it heavily reduced their use of cars hasn’t built anything at all in his life…
