it’s not only strollers, I have seen people playing ball in the street and i’m not evening talking about the fact that your not suppose to play ball on shabbos but…
If there’s a problem with playing ball on Shabbos, then educate people on that aspect of it — don’t conflate it with carrying.
In any event, I agree with you that there are people who might abuse the rules regarding carrying on Shabbos with an eruv — but that doesn’t detract from the validity of the eruv itself. If it’s valid, then it’s valid regardless of the fact that some people may choose to abuse it.
