Great analysis and great points.

It's a weird shame there's this animosity thrown around at ebikes. If you're riding two wheels and being courteous to your fellow vulnerable road users, it shouldn't matter if there's a little electric motor running too.

I'm just happy they're getting out there and showing their family and friends that they can do it too.
