Sometimes, a breastfed baby will totally refuse to take a bottle. <--- so the BBC parenting website tells me.
And a 20 minute wait for milk will not do irreparable harm to the baby, to wait to get into the car/find a less public place if you don't want to use a bottle. It really doesn't come down to rights, it comes down to common courtesy. Do women have the right? Sure, but I think it is courteous do at least make it less public.
