How did we decide on bicycles having tandem wheels vs parallel wheels? Isn’t the chariot style inherently more stable?

Lost a bit of stability riding my motorcycle today had me wondering why two wheelers aren’t like roman style chariots of old?

Because hoverboards and segways dont have the ability to turn easily??? Like there’s no handle bar for you to turn the front wheel into a 90 degree turn ok.

Also the bike was based on the dandy horse and a 1 wheel profile is easier to keep between your legs. More wheels = more width.
