A safe rider would have passed cleanly on the left with a throttle roll-on resulting in temporary front wheel vertical adjustment.
Yes, really. Your skill and mine may not be equal when riding. I never "focused" on giving the finger. Stuff really happens that is different from one's perspective. Thus, we have books to read about other people's experiences that we don't experience. BTW, I don't play in the NBA, because, well, I ain't that tall.^^^Really? If you are focused on flipping the bird and otherwise making a point to a motorist, you are not concentrating on riding safely, and you are more likely to crash. You may have avoided it in the past but that doesn't mean you didn't increase your chances.
I never felt flipping anyone off did any good other than ramp up a already bad situation.
I usually just make a comment in my helmet and ride on, not giving what happened a second thought .
I have watched riders ride right off the road as they were so engaged with their thoughts and no longer being present.
My motto? No matter how stupid the people around me are behaving, just steer clear and don't let them rent any space in my head.

If you are making comments in your helmet, then you have given it a second thought and rented space in your head. Most mass murders hide their emotions until they blow-up and kill a bunch of strangers. Perhaps releasing some steam is not such a bad thing. We make mountains out of mole hills in our social garden, like using the middle finger. Meanwhile really dangerous gophers may be destroying the whole yard.........

Apparently you have the same problem as the guy who crashed. Flipping someone off takes less distraction than scratching your nose or turning to see to blend into traffic. Do you stand on your seat and thrust at people, or something? Nuts. The bird is just moving a couple of fingers and an arm for a split second, for gopher's sake! :rolleyesHuh. Sure, our skill sets are probably different. Not sure what you're on about with the rest of that though...? Regardless of skill, perspective, amount of focus, etc., you're distracting yourself, even for a split second.
Are you skilled enough to drive and text at the same time too? :ride
