Description
Right now when you have a cluster of free-floating bikes or scooters, digitransit shows them as individual "stations" with a capacity of one.
The visualisation for this is a little confusing:

Would it make sense to cluster these free-floating bikes just like bus stops and train stations are being clustered?
We could imagine a visualisation just like in the TIER app:

I found a scooter icon in the source so maybe free-floating is going to be added in Helsinki, too.
Do you have any plans for this?
