There is a whole lot of things in this world that are not necessary like super yachts, Ferrari's and yes ... E-bikes. IMO we don't need to make them accessible to everbody, as the saying goes " if they have no bread let them eat cake " I hear many people say they wana do something but in real life they don't show up, they don't want to put themselves out enough to actualy do it, also it might just be too hard? I can't think of any product that isnt more expensive than it was 40yrs ago so maybe make them cheaper, I certainly wouldn't complain about that ?
I recently did a ride where 5 of us including the builder were on e-bikes and i had no idea where i was going but talk about a fast pace, hard work and I got some bruises, Ebikes are still a lot of work
Etiquette wise what are you gona do about an E bike that is considerably faster than an acoustic bike , Does the e-biker go ahead or does he hang 5 ft off the acoustic rider's wheel, strikes me some one will be pissed eitehr way ?
