Hard disagree. I own an ebike, which I drive in "eco" mode most of the time. After 25kph there's a hard cutoff, meaning I only drive a very heavy bike.
I also live on top of a hill, and an ebike has greatly increased my will to commute, especially when cycling home after gym.
The problem is regulation. Any bike that has a throttle, or isn't capped to 25kph should be illegal to drive without registering it as a motor vehicle. Yet I've never seen anyone actually enforce this.
