"Do not congregate in chokepoints because it prevents people from moving through them" is not a complicated principle and I do not understand why people so commonly fail to follow it.

I see a variety of behaviors like this, and it makes me (and maybe you) more annoyed than it probably should: I've concluded that some people are just inherently less spatially empathetic and incorrigible.

I don't accept inherentness as an excuse. Spatial awareness is inherently difficult for me, so I had to learn this the hard way. People who don't have that excuse aren't struggling against some difficulty, they're just being dicks who don't care about their impact on others.

I'm equally incredulous that people can get to the top of an escalator and not even consider that they might need to move out the way or check behind them lest they cause someone a minor injury. My only explanation is that parts of their brains really just don't work properly.

Escalators might be the worst; it just seems so obvious to me that extra care is needed. Bonus points for doing it when dragging luggage! But blindly turning with a backpack on, or walking beside someone without leaving them space to get past a lamppost are common aberrances too.
