There is a whole giant thing about how ebikes are making life worse not better for cyclists because of the top speeds and encouraging a preponderance of idiots who know nothing about how to handle a bike. I know the usual pedestrian and car crowds would say that is all cyclists but there is often a real difference.
I put ebikes in the same category as the motorized scooters. They straddle two types of transportation and our infrastructure is not really designed to accommodate them well, and the only real way to resolve it is to give a lot less room to cars, but that will literally never happen until I guess there are flying cars and only the poor people will be at street level anyway or whatever.
