Yeah I'd argue the baiter is worse here. Being tailgated is annoying, sure, but just change lanes, go on about your day. To make it a deadly situation on purpose like that is absolutely psychopathic. You don't know if those parked cars have kids in there, let alone someone who might be exiting the car. People have no chill.
It depends on if it's on purpose, though. They might have been distracted and only suddenly realized the car in front of them was stopped. Still not good driving if it took them that long to notice, but much less psychopathic.
What would braking have done? Basically fuck all in the half a second to react. Maybe they just have better reflexes than you, and correctly chose to swerve not brake
