Totally see where you're coming from, using just your muscle power just feels
good!
In reality though, unless you grow all your food organically on your own
property, there's quite a bit of oil involved along the way… even my friends
who run a very hippyish organic farm have diesel powered tools and trucks for
transportation. Electric motors are also a lot more efficient than the human
body.
Like you, I have the privilege of being able to access trails by muscle
power.. but a lot of people don't. If ebikes more people ride up rather than
take their car to the trailhead or shuttle, that's a huge win!
