I would have no problem with a cyclist who killed while cycling
being charged with manslaughter.

Why do you think that a charge of manslaughter is preferable to the
present charge which carries a greater maximum penalty?

Eh?

Manslaughter: max sentence = life

Causing death by DD: max sentence = 14 years

Causing death while on a pushbike: no idea what max sentence is but
it's unlikely to be greater than life
