I think you could make an argument along those lines...but is that much different than arguing that you can ride more because dual suspension is easier on your body, faster because your bike is lighter, and harder because you have better brakes, geometry, suspension, etc...all of these things added speed, range, and capability to our riding no matter what our 'baseline' capability was...e-bikes are a bigger and more immediate advantage, I'll concede, but it's still the same phenomenon, just accelerated.
